Description
Lots is an abstract shareholding game with an unusual method of valuation.
Players will build 5 “Lots” of objects collectively, taking shares in lots of their choice as the game progresses. Each lot’s ability to score is dependent on the objects in lots to the right of it, so players will have to be clever to maximize the value of their own lots, sometimes sharing the spoils with other players to win.
Lots is a game for 2-4 players and takes around 10-15 minutes to play, making it a perfect after-dinner or lunchtime game.
