Ground Floor (Second Edition)

This game is a bit of an odd duck. Points come from adding floors to your building. Floors come from having sets of two different currencies in increasing yet equal groups. One currency comes from a fairly involved process of producing goods, shipping goods, fighting for turn order, investing markers in a stock market track that only goes up. The other comes from an action space that helps your opponents get the same thing for cheaper by your presence there, and then from a single action space on your personal player board. What this looked like was these strange boom and bust turns where we'd go entire rounds where players barely paid attention to anything on the central board, and just flogged that one space on their personal board to get that second currency. It wasn't a bad time per se, it just felt a bit hollow and a little disjointed. :star: Art, Iconography and components functional :nostar: Clever or interesting mechanisms :star: Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players :nostar: Multiple plays stay interesting :star: Low or mitigatable luck elements :star::nostar::nostar::nostar::nostar: Raw enjoyment
