| EB11602 | A Delightfully Wicked Double Feature | Rette Sich Wer Kann/Intrigue | Fri. | 2-Sep | 16:00 | 3-5 | 1 | 4 hrs | N/A | N/A | Tim Thrailkill | A Delightfully Wicked Double Feature | Learn to tap the depths of your conniving and unscrupulous side, to boldly make promises you don't mean to keep to make sure you're left standing at the end. For your backstabbing pleasure, two evil little gems. The first game is Rette Sich Wer Kann ("Every Man for Himself"), and involves a little ocean catastrophe. While cruising on the high seas, disaster strikes and the ship goes down. Fortunately for all aboard, there are ample lifeboats for everyone. All you have to do is climb in and help row to the relative safety of some nearby islands. But the lifeboats weren't kept in very good repair, and they're prone to leaks... This is a game of democracy, negotiation, and tossing people to the sharks. It is pure in its ability to provoke backstabbing, whining, and needling. It's everything good about a negotiating game! The second game de jour is Intrige. This game has a reputation: a bad one, but not from a playability stand point. It's a pure negotiating game pitting the players against each other as Renaissance-era families that are engaging in rampant nepotism. Players are seeking positions in other families' businesses, and to further that pursuit players offer each other bribes. However, once accepting a bribe, the 'bought' player is under absolutely no obligation to honor the highest briber or any other verbal deal. Yeah, we're talking nasty here. No, not just nasty ... cut-throat in the vilest sense of the word. It is a virtual guarantee that you will screw ... and be screwed by ... EVERY player during the course of this game. That is the nature of the game. It is certainly NOT for the faint of heart. This tournament will be two rounds, first Intrige and then Rette Sich Wer Kann. Points will be earned for each game with total points revealing the true Machiavelli and getting the prize. Promises, threats, bribery, back-stabbing, treachery, deceit. Brutal, merciless and great fun. Who’s the nastiest backstabber of them all? (Thanks to Boradgamegeek for reviews) 3-5 Players, 3 hours needed total. | |

All you need to do is drop that skyscraper in downtown Metropolis and watch the fame and fortune roll in! One of venerable game designer Sid Sackson's greatest contributions to the negotiation genre, this game has players trying to construct the best buildings in a rapidly growing city. The map is a collection of city blocks broken into smaller lots. Each turn, players choose one lot to add to their collection of property. When a player has properties connected in the right pattern, they can erect a building from the inventory of available buildings. If a lot or two is in the control of another player, then the players can try to work out deal for placing the new building on the board by combining their lots. The placement of a building is also very important because the value of each building is determined by its location and also by the type of buildings in the same block. A game of planning, wheeling and dealing, and a bit of luck. | |
