Die grosse Auktion (1959)

About this game

In Die grosse Auktion players try to collect valuable sets of museum pieces. Exhibits can be "original", "in bad condition" or "fake", a fact usually not known until after the auction. Players can freely trade exhibits, money, special cards and make any kind of agreement, adding a diplomatic element to the game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
