One stock of each company is removed from the deck, shuffled up, and each player is given one at random to start the game. There are 6 different color-coded companies in the game, and in the basic setup, they all start at a value of 5. Stockpile is an economic/stock market game where the players vie to manipulate the market and end up with the most money at the end of the game. Our mission is to create memories through games.” Nauvoo Games is dedicated to publishing games that break the mold with innovative mechanics that encourage player engagement. By offering a fresh perspective on game design, we aim to provide new ways to play games and ultimately have fun. Our hope is to make these interactions enjoyable, but also unique. We believe that games offer the chance to intellectually and emotionally interact with friends and family. We aspire to share the countless hours of laughter and excitement that games have brought to us. “Founded in 2014, Nauvoo Games is the byproduct of a life-long gaming hobby, which brought Brett and Seth together in high school. I met them briefly at Origins, and I was excited to get a copy of the game to review. Stockpile is the maiden release for both the designers and their game company, Nauvoo Games. Times played: 4, with both a published copy as well as on a review copy provided by Nauvoo Games.I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines and uploaded the relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material as supplementary files, if applicable. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance). I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as. I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals. I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained.

Altogether, these findings provide a rationale for nations with extensive vaccine stockpiles to share with other nations. Moreover, we find that there are hybrid sharing policies that have a negligible effect on fatalities in the donor nation compared to the optimal policy while significantly reducing fatalities in the recipient nation. Despite acting selfishly, vaccine sharing by a donor nation significantly reduces transmission and fatalities in the recipient nation. This effect is intensified as vaccination rates decrease and epidemic coupling increases. Mechanistically, sharing a vaccine stockpile reduces the intensity of outbreaks in the recipient nation, in turn reducing travel-associated incidence in the donor nation. Despite the selfish objective, we find it is often optimal for a donor nation to share a significant fraction of its vaccine stockpile.
Here we use a two-nation coupled epidemic model to evaluate optimal vaccine-sharing policies given a selfish objective: in which countries with vaccine stockpiles aim to minimize fatalities in their own populations. For example, as of April 2022 only ∼20% of the population in Africa has received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose. However, vaccine protectionism by wealthy nations has limited progress towards vaccine sharing goals. The COVAX program aims to provide global equitable access to life-saving vaccines.
