The Glasgow Game

Product Information

So each player can each conceivably take 2 or 3 turns at a time, and you have to calculate, “Is it worth it to go get that building knowing that they can take everything in between or should I risk them taking that building so that I can build up my resources? Taxi drivers have an opinion on every subject, land on one of the ‘Sound-Off’ squares and it’s your turn to sound-off like a cabbie.

From the latest theatre events and live music performances to local activities and fantastic attractions, we keep you up to date daily! You can navigate the action ring as fast as you like, but the faster you go the more actions you give away to your opponent. Special thanks to the staff member who was working in the arcade area, made my daughter feel right at home and couldn’t be more welcoming. The game in the box was developed in recognition that in many circumstances it is easier to play the game offline i. There is enough complexity that you won’t know who has won until you have totted things up at the end.I could just set back with a good ol’ glass o’ scotch whiskey and dream of the life we coulda had together.

The Glasgow Game is a learning game which encourages an understanding of health and wellbeing in Glasgow, promotes thinking about the complexities and context of the city and helps people consider possible futures for Glasgow. Do you place that tenement there because it will score mega points because it is surrounded by other blocks of flats?

The predominance of factories and the brick/iron do enough to give you the feel of an industrial revolution happening, but there's little to represent the titular City unless you count the whisky "wild card" resource. Every action is a meaningful choice as you decide whether to go ahead for that tile you really want, or hope your opponent won't go for it and take smaller steps. The difficult bit about this decision is that if you jump too far forwards, the other player can take every single action that you skipped, until their pawn catches up with yours.The components of the game are some wooden resource tokens, a resource board for each player, 4 architect tiles, 14 contract tiles and some building tiles. This one will be coming off the shelf often on those otherwise full nights that still need a game to be played. As soon as the sixteenth building is erected, the game ends and players score points for what they built.

It is strongly advised to bring a pen and paper with you for workings out and the use of a compass on a phone. Each architect will have a couple of buildings placed above it, and using the resources they collect (brick, steel, gold and the wild whiskey token) the players will compete to build these buildings in a four by five grid in the centre of the roundel. The ‘Glasgow Game’ has been developed in collaboration with the International Futures Forum (IFF) and is a version of their World Game , created by Tony Hodgson.In honesty, so do I, and whilst I was convinced that Glasgow‘s would have gameplay to suit us, getting my wife over the artwork was a challenge.
