Description
TV Wars is a game of television network battles for ratings, where 3 to 4 players compete to end up with the most money. Each player takes on the role of a semi-fictional TV network, navigating a standard square-track board filled with event spaces that can make or break their ratings. Drawing event cards, auctioning off new TV shows or stars, and triggering ratings wars are all part of the game. As players move through the game, they'll lay out tiles representing their prime-time line-up, complete with bonuses for stars and reviews. But be warned: shows with the lowest ratings in their time slot are cancelled, and when a network has no shows left, it's off the air for good. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 90 minutes, TV Wars is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for a night in with friends.
