After a player has been around the board once he can
buy a "V.I.P." card
buy a "V.I.P." card which allows him to use either die or
the total at each move. Also some spaces have retrograde
arrows which allow a player to move back on his next turn,
if he wishes. At the start there is little money for a player
to work with, but after one good sale it doesn't seem to be
a problem. The game ends when the deck of <s>'4000</s> "high
sales" (I believe) are all used. Most money wins. If [illegible strikeout] "low
sales" are used up they are reshuffled and used again.
The share cards are constantly being returned to the piles, with
no definite method of doing it. (Fairly complete idea.)
I found the game hard to follow, with a bad balance, and
I had no desire to try and remember the sell cards I looked
at in advance, nor to remember those that were already used. I
told Claude about the memory bit and got a snotty answer.
