There at the Founding: Indiana

Be among the very first to experience Indiana: There at the Founding, an all-new interactive historical strategy game developed by the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site.

Working together as a frontier community, you’ll build a town from the ground up, navigate pivotal molments in Indiana and American history, and make the difficult decisions that shaped life on the early frontier. Every choice matters as your community balances education, order, morale, population, and precious resources on the road to Indiana’s admission as the 19th state.

Following the game, we’ll invite participants to stay for a brief discussion and share their thoughts. As this is our first public playthrough, your feedback will help up us fine-tune the experience before its official launch.

Whether you’re a history enthusiast, board game fan, educator, or simply looking for a unique evening out, this is your chance to help shape a one-of-a-kind experience while having one of your own!
