Every president since my birth has a game in this series. The pieces combines the text from their inaugural speech with a board game that symbolizes their presidency.
Nixon’s legacy is Watergate. His entire presidency became irrelevant after the Watergate wiretapping scandal. However, Nixon enacted significant changes to American society and politics before the scandal. He ended the military draft, and officially ended American involvement in Vietnam combat in 1973. His visit to communist China in 1972 eventually led to diplomatic relations between the two nations, and he also then signed the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty with the Soviet Union. Nixon's domestic policies included enforcing desegregation of schools, establishing the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Controlled Substances Act which began the War on Drugs. By late 1973, the Nixon administration’s involvement in Watergate which eroded his support in Congress and the country. On August 9, 1974, facing almost certain impeachment and removal from office, Nixon resigned. The connection between Nixon’s presidency and Sorry are rooted in the symbolism of the game's name rather than the mechanics of game play. Players move their three or four pieces around the board, attempting to get all of their pieces "home" before any other player. The game title comes from the many ways in which a player can negate the progress of another, while issuing an apathetic "Sorry!"
