Invest in European airlines by building routes and claiming stock. Majority shareholders score big.
Vibe's take
stock investment, route building, majority scoring, accessible, Acquire-like tension
Who it's for
Families and groups who enjoy stock games and want accessible route-building investment.
Not for you if…
You want deep economic simulation. This is a medium-weight family euro, not a financial game.
Invest in airlines by placing routes on a map of Europe, then play stock cards to claim shares in those growing companies. When scoring rounds trigger, majority shareholders in each airline earn points. The twist: a phantom airline (Air ABACUS) scores for anyone who invests in it, creating a diversification option. Route placement is free but requires discarding a card, while taking stock means skipping route building. Balancing expansion with ownership creates Acquire-like tension in an accessible, beautifully produced package.
