Board games based on modern events? (lemm.ee)

Looking for some board games that would be relatable to, let say, experiences from the last 20 years. But not in a generic sense like Pandemic, more like something more explicitly based on real events. Any suggestions?

I think you might struggle to find something like this. Real history takes time to be evaluated and written. Then you have the time to develop a game people actually want to play.

TBH, I see events in the public space get documents leaked and published all the time, or even documentaries being released. I would expect events like the 2008 market crash or Brexit to have enough content for a simple board game at this point. I mean, I’m not expecting Campaign For North Africa level of details ;-)

I agree development time is necessary though.
