Be a titan of business and or beacon of civic pride by trading land, labor, and capital to build your corporate and civic empires to advance personal and team goals in this semi-cooperative megagame.
Long Description:
Oligopoly simulates the interwoven relationship between the public and private sector in the world of business. As a business leader, your goal is to carve a niche within the complex global economy -- and profit from trade with other businesses and cities. As a city leader, your goal is to work with other players to advance your city's interests -- and perhaps even annex your frenemies. Oligopoly is a semi-cooperative, engine-building, economic megagame that thrusts 6-40 players into the dynamic role of civic cooperation. Engine building elements resemble Furnace and Race for the Galaxy, but at a large scale with organized chaos similar to Pit and NSDM (The National Security Decision Making Game).
