Vegas Showdown

Game Information

Publisher
Year Published
Avalon Hill

You and a few of your millionaire friends have invested in a plot of land in the heart of Las Vegas. Each of you has one year to plan and build a luxury hotel/casino on the site. Just to make things interesting, you've put a little wager on your venture -- when the doors open, the builder of the most famous hotel/casino wins ownership of the entire block! 

Resources are limited, so you'll have to outbid each other to get the best contractors to work on your project. With the right combination of restaurants, lounges, gaming rooms, and other attractions -- along with some well-timed publicity -- the jewel of the Entertainment Capital of the World will be yours!

I hate the whole Vegas schtick, but liked the game

Vegas Showdown is a game of buying, building, and generating income. Simple rules and good solid economic concepts mean the game is accessible to noobs and veterans alike.

The game sets a basic economic system in place and gives you the opportunity to outplay your opponents. Spend less, build better, make your opponents spend more, and you win.

Nothing Earth-shattering here, but a good solid game. I'll likely not buy it (in spite of its low price) but I'd be up for a game given the opportunity.

Sag.
