Contract (2018)

About this game

Everything has a price — it's just a matter of what you're willing to pay. In Contract, this will be your motto as you try to win the most lucrative deals and become more powerful than anyone else by recovering important deals that for the moment lie in the hands of different Mafiosi families. Corrupt the different members of these families with contracts or dollars; involve cops, lawyers, or freelance agents to change the course of the game; and do not let the opponents outbid your offers to have the most mafiosi on your side at the end of the game and recover the biggest deals.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
