#WhatDidYouPlayMondays John Company

@boardgames @geekygoodies #boardgames
All other semi-cooperative #boardgames I know focus on a clearcut distinction between (semi-)good players and traitors, given by secret personal role/objective card(s). This game is innovative in that *everybody* is driven by personal gain, and the only reason players don’t screw each other over all the time is that people still need the company to stay afloat.

    Kraftwagen, car-themed with a great rondel action mechanic

    The Magnificent, circus-themed dice drafting

    Century: A New World, cube trading like the original but now somewhat heavier and with more strategic depth

    Terra Mystica: Age of Innovation, still the same core game, now with technologies and more ways to score points
