Ponzi Scheme

Players assume the roles of fraudulent financiers who recruit investors with promises of high returns and use incoming funds to acquire Industry tiles. Each turn a player takes a Fund card from the market, collects the cash and its matching Industry tile, and is obliged to pay the card’s promised reward after a set number of rounds. Between funding rounds, players may conduct bilateral “inside trades” to buy or sell Industries with other players. At round end players advance a Time Wheel to track due payments and pay any rewards that come due. Play ends when a player cannot meet a payout and goes bankrupt; the remaining player with the highest victory points from Industries wins.
