Vibe's take
agonizing decisions, elegant, quick, tense auctions, portable
Who it's for
Anyone who appreciates elegant design in a tiny package. Perfect opener or closer.
Not for you ifβ¦
You dislike auctions or player elimination. The richest pauper always loses.
Bid on luxury goods to flaunt your wealth, but the player with the least cash at game end is automatically eliminated regardless of their collection. Knizia at his sharpest: the entire game is a series of agonizing auction decisions using a fixed hand of money cards you can never get change for. Negative cards force you to bid to avoid them. Every auction reshapes the table dynamics. Plays in 20 minutes, fits in a pocket, and delivers more tension than games ten times its size.
