Description

HIGHEST BIDDER — which includes the games ANIMAL KINGDOM and ART AUCTION — is a card game series in which you place secret bids to score valuable cards. As you score points you typically either write down your score on a sheet of paper, or you turn the cards that you win 90 or 180 degrees sideways depending on if the card is worth half points or double points.

With these awesome score boards, you no longer need to do any of this!

EASILY KEEP TRACK OF SCORES:

As you score points, move a beautiful colored see-through plastic cube that comes with the boards on the designated spaces numbered -10 through 69.

You get 4 boards in 4 different colors — pick your favorite! There's an extra set of cubes for a 5th player in which case two players share a board.

BONUS PERKS:

As an extra to enhance your game of Highest Bidder, each board has 4 cool perks. Use each perk once at any time during the game to gain a small advantage:

  • DRAW 1: Start the next turn with 1 extra card in your hand (this perk appears twice — use both at the same time to start with 2 extra cards!).
  • SKIP A BID: Choose one bid each game to skip (you do not have to play any cards on the selected turn).
  • RANDOM CARD: When a turn/bid is over, draw one last card at random. this can change the outcome if you lost a bid by a close call.

The perks are an optional element that work with any game in the HIGHEST BIDDER series. If you don't wish to use the perks, you can skip them and use the score boards only for score keeping.

COMPATIBLE GAMES:

The artwork and style of the colorful score boards are from the game HIGHEST BIDDER: ANIMAL KINGDOM, however the boards work with any game in the HIGHEST BIDDER series.

WHAT DO I GET?

  • 4 score boards in different colors
  • 25 plastic cubes (5 of each board color, plus 5 extra for a 5th player to share a board with another player — the reason that a 5th board is not included is that the boards are printed in stock of 4 each, thus doubling the printing cost even if only one extra board is added).

NOTE: These items do NOT come in a box. The boards are 4 x 8 inches (approximately 10 x 20 cm) and made of laser cut 60pt chipboard with a heavy matt finish. The cubes are 10mm and delivered in a ziplock bag.
