Description
Airlines is a game where players compete to build the most valuable portfolio of airline stocks. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 6 players can join in on the fun, navigating the world of aviation and economics. Designed by Alan R. Moon and first published in 1990, this game has stood the test of time, offering a unique blend of network and route building, stock holding, and investment mechanics. As players take turns, they can choose to expand an airline's route on the board, increasing its value, or play stock from their hand to secure their holdings. The twist is that only played stock counts when scoring cards appear, adding a layer of strategy to the game. With a playtime of 90 minutes, Airlines offers a engaging and challenging experience, where the player with the most valuable portfolio at the end emerges victorious.
