It's time to sell your Property Cards and earn some money! In this phase, the Property Cards will be sold for Currency Cards. As in Phase 1, the same number of Currency Cards will be turned face up as there are players. One man's castle is another man's cardboard box (or maybe his RV, treehouse, igloo, or skyscraper).Choose a starting player in For Sale and they may bid a number of their coins or they may pass. If they pass they receive the lowest value (worse) property in the current market. Shuffle the property cards and currency cards separately and then remove six of each for a 3 player game, two of each for 4 players, and none for a 5 or 6 player game. The game ends when all players have sold all of their properties. Players add up their Currency Cards and remaining Coins and the richest player wins! For example, in a four player game, turn up four Property Cards. All of the face-up properties will now be auctioned so that no player goes empty-handed. Each player may bid or pass.

If he bids, the bid amount must be more than the previous bid. Bidding continues around the table for as many times as necessary until all players have passed. The rest of the money is returned to the bank and is placed out of the game. After all players but one have passed, the remaining bidding player takes the highest-valued property, but pays the full amount of his bid to the bank.The component quality is good. The chits and cards are all of a solid industry standard that is acceptable for a game of this type and price. The cards each have their own dwelling artwork ranging from a dog house all the way to a space station. I always sleeve my games where appropriate and this might be necessary here depending on how often you play as you do not want any marked cards. Engagement Each player takes his Property Cards into his hand and places one Property Card face down in front of him. Once all of the other players have their face-down Property Card ready to play, all players turn over their Property Cards simultaneously. The theme of this simple game is property trading, however, due to this simplicity there is a limited amount of opportunity to experience this theme. The auction mechanic does allow for players to feel like they are bidding on properties to develop and then resell for a profit. The unique artwork is of a high standard and complements the game well, featuring unique property art on each property card. The theme does work with the mechanics but another theme could easily be used for a different game. Player Interaction
