Description

In the gritty world of Infamy, players take on the role of freelancers vying for control and profit in a corrupt Martian mining colony. With three factions to align with and a network of seedy contacts to assist, the goal is to accumulate Infamy points or rise through the reputation ranks. The game is all about making strategic bids and sacrifices, as nearly anything can be bought for the right price. As players navigate the dark underbelly of the colony, they must balance their bidding power with their ambitions. Spend too much and risk dwindling resources, or refuse to bid and watch opponents acquire valuable assets. With its unique blend of auction and influence mechanics, Infamy offers a thrilling experience for 3 to 4 players, lasting around 60 minutes. Designed by Travis R. Chance, this 2013 game is perfect for those familiar with board games, looking for a challenging and immersive experience.
