Shady Business társasjáték

The Shady & Cutthroat Side of Beach Umbrella Rental.

It's your last summer before university, and you spend the sunny days working in the Umbrella Rental Hut at the local beach. One day, you boss announces a contest for you and your coworkers: "Whoever rents out the most umbrellas, with me as the judge," she adds, "wins some big bonuses!" You're the best umbrella rental agent on this entire coast, and it's going to be a big payday for sure!

Shady Business is a 1-4 player game where players bid to cordon-off sections of the beach, and while they do they can also sneak an umbrella of their color into that section too!

Tiles show cordoned-off ropes to mark different sections of beach. When a section is completely closed, the boss will judge the section and give bonuses (points) to the player, or players, that have the most umbrellas in that section.

However she also gives a bonus to the player who closes the section, based on the number of unique beachgoers in there; the more unique, the more money earned!

The tiles that you place also are used for bidding. Each has a number going from 1-15. The highest number bidder goes first, placing their tiles and adding an umbrella. The beach begins to fill with umbrellas, and you must follow the rule: You cannot place an umbrella in a section already with at least one umbrella... but if you can set it to the side, and then sneakily connect it to an already existing section... NO, that would be SHADY!

Or wait... do you know what would be even shadier?! If you bid the highest, you instead can move one of your umbrellas into a section, even if there are umbrellas there. OR HOW ABOUT... if you bid the lowest, you can decide to put up to two umbrellas on your tile.

Score as many bonuses before the day is out, then you'll have enough money to buy at least one textbox for classes this fall!
