Description
Crisis: Spies is a thrilling expansion to the base game Crisis, designed by Pantelis Bouboulis and Sotirios Tsantilas, and first released in 2017. This game is perfect for 1 to 5 players who are looking for a fun and engaging experience that can last anywhere from 45 to 120 minutes. One of the best things about Crisis: Spies is how simple the rules are - they can be explained quickly, making it easy for new players to jump in and start playing right away. In Crisis: Spies, players will use a combination of commodity speculation and worker placement mechanics to navigate the world of espionage and industry. The game falls under several categories, including economic, industry/manufacturing, political, and of course, spies/secret agents, making it a great fit for fans of a wide range of themes. As an expansion to the base game Crisis, Crisis: Spies adds a new layer of excitement and complexity to the original gameplay. For example, some special promo tiles can be added to the mix at the start of the game, which are assigned to the player who is currently last in the VP grid. These tiles can be used during production to gain valuable resources, money, or VP, giving players a chance to catch up or get ahead. As the game progresses, these special tiles are reassigned to the player who is last in VP after each round, keeping the game exciting and unpredictable. With its unique blend of mechanics and themes, Crisis: Spies is a great addition to any board game collection. Whether you're a fan of the base game Crisis or just looking for a new game to try, Crisis: Spies is definitely worth checking out. Its simple rules and engaging gameplay make it a great fit for players of all experience levels, and its moderate playtime of 45 to 120 minutes makes it a great option for a weeknight game night or a weekend gaming session.
