Long Description:
New & improved for Gen Con ‘26! In Oligopoly: The Market Control Paradox, teams of up to four become city leaders for a major U.S. city. Working with teammates, you’ll lead your city to victory by trading resources & labor with up to 12 other cities. Competing goals will complicate your plans, but with multiple paths to victory, will YOUR city be the one to solve The Market Control Paradox?
Oligopoly simulates the relationship between public and private sectors. It's a semi-cooperative, engine-building, real-time trading megagame for 12-52 players. The engine-building elements resemble Terraforming Mars and Race for the Galaxy at scale, while trading phases create organized chaos similar to Pit and Sidereal Confluence! Come join the fun!
