About this game
In Fortune, each player makes money by buying plants, fuel and computers with which to produce goods. Such goods are distributed by one of a number of distributors, depending on how much you are selling. Players may also make money by becoming major shareholders in any of the distribution or service firms around the board. Special dice are used for takeovers. Players may also buy insurance, consultancy and advertisement to insure against any loss, improve their sales or assist their business's effectiveness. The winner is decided by predetermined conditions; either playing for a set time or reaching a monetary target.
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 3 to 8.
- Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
- Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
