Description

In the spring of 2018, Beyoncé became the first ever Black woman to headline Coachella, an annual multiday music and arts festival in California that had been ongoing for nearly 20 years. Understanding the opportunity to put Black cultural expression in the spotlight, she organized a 26-song set with over 2 hours of performance steeped in historically black college and university (HBCU) life and Black feminism. Beyoncé spent months prepping the choreography and symbolism of the show with groups of steppers, gospel singers, majorettes, drumlines, marching bands, and more from many HBCUs. This process is documented in the film, Homecoming, which won a grammy for Best Music Film and is widely aclaimed as the best concert film of all time.

This game celebrates those who performed alongside Beyoncé and the intense training they underwent in preparation for the show. Players will play tricks and increase the power of their cards by learning from the skills of those cards better than themselves. At the end of the game, the player with the most well-trained performers wins.

This is the second game in the Greatest Shows on Earth series.
