Game Review Time~~~


Like no new posts lately leh.. Shall review a game.. I'm the Boss!



Ok, this game consists of a game board similar to Monopoly jus that instead of title deeds, there are deals to be closed. The objective of this game is to close as many deals as possible. Each deal is worth a certain amount of shares and the value of the shares get higher as the game progresses and more deals are being closed.

So how do u close a deal? To close a deal u will need the right people required to close it. For, example a deal requires George and Watts to close, and suppose u only have George, U can den propose to any other players who have Watts to close the deal with u....of cos at a price...u will have to cut a portion of the deal to the other person la....how much to cut or to get ppl to close deals with u depends on ur 'persuasive' powers....

There are certain power cards which a player can play, which ranges from sending a person off on a holiday so he can't close a deal or buying a particular person over dats required to close the deal or play the most powerful card – I'm the Boss! To take control of the deal!

Because it's basically a negotiating game, it is noisy and interactive. The sabo-ing or psycho-ing aspect of this game makes the game very enjoyable. Watch wad everybody does when someone is close to closing a huge deal.. There will be lots of psycho-ing asking everyone not to co-operate with the boss or the person holding a card that the boss requires asking for a huge cut of the deal.

The game ends when some huge deal deals are closed and a particular dice roll that corresponds to the end game requirements. Den the scores/money are calculated and the real Boss is born!

Fun value: 5/5
Replay value: 4/5 ( negotiating can be tiring...haha..)
Learning curve: Easy
FastFoward Rates.... : Must Play!
