Description

Inventor’s Market

It is the Second Industrial Revolution. The patent office is filled to the brim with new inventions every day. Set against the backdrop of the Victorian era, the year is 1899. You are racing against your rival inventors to be the first to build your invention for the 1900 World's Fair. Scavenge junk for components, sabotage your competitors, and build the greatest invention the world has even known! Be the mad genius you always knew you could be...

Inventor’s Market is a simple game of low cunning with high science! Every inventor starts with a unique blueprint like the Nautilus, the Moon Cannon, or the Death Ray! Each turn you collect a component from the market place pile. Collecting components like the rare Electric Generator, the uncommon Compressed Gases, or the ever present Dials & Gauges.
As a wealthy inventor you also have action cards that you may play every turn. You can have Paid Spies to figure out what your opponent is building, Scavenge the junk pile for components you need, or foil your opponent with a Lab Accident to kill off their Lab Assistant. Once you have all the components for your Blueprint you win.

Inventor's Market is for 2-6 players it is easy to learn and an average game lasts around 15 minutes. The game will have a custom tuckbox containing instructions, 6 Blueprints cards, 30 Component cards, and 60 Action cards. Play whilst having tea and crumpets, at your local social club, or local tavern and have a rousing good time.
