The heavier than initially looking strategy title Brides & Bribes is about to make it’s first non-European appearance this April by way of Ares Games and Spaceballoon Games. In the game, players represent Genoese families vying for power and wealth during the Renaissance. Bride & Bribes is for two to five players, ages 12+, and plays in around 60 minutes. Currently, no MSRP info has been released yet.
From Ares:
In Brides & Bribes, you and the other players try to outmaneuver one another as scheming nobleman in Renaissance Genoa.
Starting with a handful of loyal family members and few resources, you will struggle to become the new Doge, Lord of Genoa, and the most powerful family in the city.
You will have to use your cunning and deception skills to find the right balance between increasing your richness (buildings, news employees) and growing your power (marriage and influence)!
Brides & Bribes is a worker (tiles) placement and resource management board game, published by Spaceballoon Games. The incredible interaction between players makes the game evilly fun! The sequences of actions and counteractions keep you busy the entire game!
