Pick Up CMON’s We Care: A Grizzled Game & Give Back
February 10, 2021 by brennon
CMON has previewed a new game in The Grizzled series, a cooperative card game which is pretty darn challenging. Moving away from World War I, We Care: A Grizzled Game, has you playing as doctors working on the front lines to keep people healthy.
We Care // CMON
Straight out of the gate, it should be noted that for every copy sold, a donation will be made to Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières by CMON. Much like the original game of The Grizzled, you'll have to work together, manage your hand of cards and deal with emerging situations as a team. This will have you balancing your own well-being against the needs of others. Importantly, cooperation and teamwork are a must as that is the only way you'll be able to beat the game.
The Grizzled was a good representation of the struggles of ordinary soldiers during World War I and it genuinely felt like you had to work together towards a common goal, helping each other through the situations that arose during gameplay. I would imagine We Care will build on that and be able to offer a similar experience.
Whilst things may be a little raw for some people due to the ongoing situation, I do commend CMON for making donations to help those doing the hard work on the front lines.
Are you tempted to pick this up?

I don’t know how the others feel about it but the moment I read CMON my interest drops to zero.
Same; it is good that they’re at least donating some of the proceeds to charity, but it also feels like they’re trying to cash in on a crisis.
What’s the issue with CMON? I’ve got 3 games by them (On Her Majesty’s Service, Rise of Moloch, Victorian Masterminds) that I love, and have got a couple more backed on Kickstarter waiting fulfilment.
It’s getting “bad practice” with then that they stop supporting their stuff after the KS has ended. They just flood the market.
Also see Humble Bundle if you’re looking for donations to charity. Wide variety of games, software, and books (all digital content). https://www.humblebundle.com/bundles?hmb_source=navbar
