Art Broker

This is a retheme of Sukimono by Grounding/Japon Brand, no original artwork used.

Art Broker is a stock market game of real-time card collecting. You are a broker specialising in contemporary artwork.

At the start of each round, each player receives $5k and the game board is filled with "wanted items". New items are placed at particular price values, while items already on the board are boosted one step on the price chart because they're still in demand. In player order, based on the number token they hold, each player chooses a deck of item cards, which represents the paintings available in a particular city. Everyone goes through their decks at the same time, pulling out any items that they'd like to buy and that they can afford to purchase. At any time, a player can stop looking and grab the lowest available number card.

Once everyone has bought their wares, they sell them in number order from low to high, selling as many items as they wish for the current prices on offer and holding on to whatever else they've purchased. Each time an item is sold, the appropriate wanted card on the game board drops one level in value, falling off the board if demand is fulfilled. If you end up trying to sell at the wrong time, some of your collection will be worthless! If a player has $50k or more, the player with the most money wins; if not, a new round begins with players taking the decks of object cards, searching once again for art in demand...
