Dividends

I got a review copy of Dividends from Fun Factory Games. For a new company, they've certainly got the production values right. Dividends looks very sleek and actually looks more modern than pretty much anything else I have.

The game seems interesting enough: it's a fairly simple stock-market game of buy, sell and earn dividends. The catch is the player amount: the game handles 2-12 and at least Tom Vasel says the game is best with five or more.

There are plenty of stock-market games out there - Acquire comes to mind - but there aren't many games that support over six or seven players. Party games, sure, but this is something else than your average party game.

Well, we'll see - next board game club meeting is soon and I hope to try the game, hopefully with lots of players.

I have played Dividends a couple of times and it is a fun game, quite quick. I'd say you need five players as an absolute minimum. They did a remarkable job with the production of the game - it looks great.
