Der große Reibach társasjáték

Angol leírás

10 years world economic crisis - reason enough to project the thing as a caricature on your table. In Der große Reibach, every player turns into the CEO of a big bank, trying to cash in as much money as their questionable means allow. The goal of the game is to be the first have 80 TSD in the bank.

The basic trade for these banks is customer business. Each bank has three branches where they can look after different customers and try to cash in on their investments. You earn your costumers’ trust through persuasive bank advisors. If the trust is established you will fill your pockets with quick cash, but as soon as the trust is lost the costumers will flee and the money with them.

To make sure the other banks won’t do too well, there are plenty of action cards you can use to influence and manipulate the competition. Lawyers, for example, sue the most capable employees of the other banks, the black bloc destroys entire branches, and the critical shareholder worries the investors of your competitors. On the other hand, of course, one's own bank can also be improved by incidentally food speculation, attracting rating agencies or allowing brokers to work for you. With over 50 different cards and a total card number of 185 cards there are numerous options available to pave the path to the big money.

The own pocket is represented in the game by a small cloth bag, so that the competition cannot see your fortune and nobody can be certain to win the game until the very end. Suspense until the big finale is guaranteed.

The turn-based game is characterized by having a very high level of interaction between the players and which allows to have a great impact on the moves and opportunities of other players. With a duration of 90 to 180 minutes (depending on the number of players), there are enough opportunities to make up for any financial arrears. Each turn you hold, six action points can be used. You can split them up between buying new cards, playing the cards in your hand, and activating cards already placed. You control the markets and gameplay through your own behavior, so that no match is the same and different tactics can be profitable.
