The two-player card game Cold War Rummy was inspired thematically by Twilight Struggle and mechanically by Mike Fitzgerald's Mystery Rummy game series. In the game, each suit represents different geographical areas that players are trying to score, in addition to China and the NATO/Warsaw Pact alliances. Action cards allow players to manipulate their hands and the cards they control. The first player to score 100 VP wins.
