ゲーム概要
プレイ人数: 3-4人 | 時間: 30分 | 複雑度: 2.0/5
BGG評価: 6.8/10 | BGA対応: なし
ゲーム概要¶
FIXERは、プレイヤーが陰の権力ブローカーとなって舞台裏で選挙を操作する政治的なトリックテイキングゲームです。カードをプレイしてトリックを勝ち取りますが、真の挑戦は政治的影響力を管理し、最大のインパクトをもたらすタイミングで介入することです。
伝統的なトリックテイキングゲームとは異なり、FIXERは古典的なカードプレイとエリアコントロール要素を組み合わせ、特定の地域でトリックを勝ち取ることで政治的影響力を獲得し、それが勝利ポイントに変換されます。
