About this item

Every decision you make in Container shapes the market. At least that's the goal — but can you make it happen? The rules for Container are simple; the real challenge is understanding and timing the market. Players build machines, warehouses, and containers, then sail your containers to the island and auction them off. Be careful with your money — in the closed economy, money's tight and your opponents are cutthroat! At the beginning of the game, container value cards are secretly dealt to all players. Because these values aren’t shown, you’ll have to suss out what your opponents are going for throughout the game! But at final scoring, these come into play. The player with the most money wins. Beautiful new artwork gives this version of Container a New Yorker vibe and is sure to be an eye catcher on any shelf. New components and board layout make this a very appealing table presence. An incredibly rich economic experience with high degrees of player interaction. One of the most clever auction/economy games is finally getting the re-print it's deserved for so long.
