Business Tour reviews

SCAM: I rarely give my opinion, but there frankly on this game there is enough to say so it's worth the detour. Initially, in my first few games we manage pretty well on the first two laps since you and your opponents are busy buying and not having to pay the other players. But as I went on, I noticed that I often fell out of luck by finding myself on the odds cards that are much more likely to be punitive than to really be lucky. They are even extremely punitive and can ruin you in one card. The game seems to be a player's advantage. I did the test playing with friends and we clearly guess in the space of 2 or 3 laps that will win. To give you a very simple example, I had built a whole row of hotels and it was almost impossible to miss it unless you fall on 1 lucky box or 1 travel box. On 14 rounds, the winner never fell on one of my boxes and on his 14 laps, I fell with my other opponents on all the hotels of the winner and on the taxes. The winner is ultimately only stumbled on advantageous boxes or on the cheapest hotels on the plateau. It sounds crazy, but on several parts it happened like this. The game seems coded in a totally absurd way and suddenly we spend more time trying to guess the future winner than actually playing. Finally, this advantage clearly kills the game, because there is no fun procured, because the games are already made from the beginning that you were playing with your friends and Ditto against the computer. Really bad because the spirit of the game is good. But suddenly, it's no longer a game, but a scam from the moment the dice are in favor of only one player.

After about fifty games, I think I've played enough to be able to evaluate business tour. The main point that I will address is a point criticized on many evaluations: the assumption that the game is scrypté. I'm defying this idea. It's a game where you lose more than you win (for my part: 14 WINS for 43 defeats). But I'm not saying that this game is encrypted. Certainly, there are some parts where you say "the game wants such a player to win" (note that this player may very well be you) because all the other players fall at his house repeatedly. Then there are some times when we say "I would really have no luck if I fell on this box" and BAM we fall on it. But I still do not assert that the game is scrypté. Just because each part is different! Already, because there are many ways to win, to play. Then it is true that in some parts, one can easily guess that the player who will win is the one who is the richest and has the most properties. But it has often happened that the same player goes bankrupt after a big blow, and the game turns. There are often in each part a box that is more expensive than the others on which no one wants to fall, well there are times when 3 players fall on it as a result, and others where no one touches it. And I even did a part in which nothing happened, and each player had equivalent properties (what a nuisance). Anyway, I'm not going to have fun at all list, but playing, I found a lot of different scenarios, with reversations, and I don't get tired of this game, although I think it would be better with friends. I would even advise the setting up of a new Smiley: the Palm face (because some players really do not think) x) has force to play one can even develop strategies. It will not replace the plateau monopoly, in which the fun is also to manipulate the tickets, move his pawn, and the much more varied choice of odds cards, but for a free game, I find that he resumes very well the principle. | Finally, I just want to clarify that my parts on business tour are made without gadget, and for the majority in a time allotted 20 minutes. |
