John Company (2nd Edition)
In stock at the following stores: Games København, Games Aarhus
In John Company the players are ambitious families trying to use the British East India Company to their personal advantage. Over the course of the game, the company will either grow into the most powerful corporation in the world or collapse under the weight of its ambitions.
Unlike many other economic games, the players do not run their own company. Instead they guide the company together by securing positions of power and trying to steer its fate in a direction that serves their own interests. Doing things alone is hard, so the players have to negotiate with each other.
John Company is not about wealth but about reputation. Each round, some family members may retire and establish estates, and the players do not control when this happens. As a result, players sometimes have to borrow money from each other to make the most of the situation. Players also earn victory points by taking part in London society.
An engaging game that tackles themes such as imperialism, globalisation and an institution that was equal parts dysfunctional and influential.
