Acquire

Winner Games Magazine Hall Of Fame Award

 About the Game

As a powerful real estate tycoon, there are only seven hotel chains in the world worthy of your attention. Using nothing but your wealth and wits, you must vie against other business magnates to manipulate construction and capitalize on mergers -- buying, trading, and selling stocks in order to get the greatest return on your investments.

Each player strategically invests in businesses, trying to retain a majority of stock. As the businesses grow with tile placements, they also start merging, giving the majority stockholders of the acquired business sizable bonuses, which can then be used to reinvest into other chains. All of the investors in the acquired company can then cash in their stocks for current value or trade them 2-for-1 for shares of the newer, larger business. The game is a race to acquire the greatest wealth.

Acquire challenges you to pit your resources and resolve against other players in this high-finance game of speculation and strategy!

Acquire contains:

10" x 20" game board
108 Hotel Tiles
7 Chain Tiles
175 Stock Certificates
24 Page Rulebook

Of allthe games designed by the legenday Sid Sackson, Acquire is possibly the most lauded since it wasfirst launched in 1962. Now revamped in all new packaging, it’s rated in the Top 10 games of all time. It’s in Games Magazine’s Hall Of Fame. Enough said!

 For 3 – 6 players. Ages 12 +

RRP $59.95
