It looks like amazingly good fun. I would give a minor body part for a chance to play in something similar.
I don’t know where you live, but some large American game conventions have similar exercises, e.g. the National Security Decision-Making Game. They probably wouldn’t be as much loony fun, though….
Seems like Diplomacy on steroids. Diplomacy is freaky enough with seven players.
