Description
ESSEN The Game: SPIEL'13 is a strategy game where you play as a visitor at the International Game Fair of Essen, navigating through crowds to find your favorite games. With a wishlist in hand, you'll need to manage your budget and balance the weight of your purchases, as carrying too many games will slow you down. You'll have to make strategic trips back to the parking lot to store your buys before heading back into the fray. As one of 2 to 5 players, you'll compete to achieve your goals in about 75 minutes of playtime. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to board game enthusiasts, and its economic theme and mechanics like action points and set collection will keep you engaged. Published in 2014 and designed by Etienne Espreman, Fabrice Beghin, and Frédéric Delporte, ESSEN The Game is a fun simulation of a day at the fair, where you can live or relive the excitement of the Kingdom of Games.
