Food chain magnate review. November 2 2016 Jason Board Games Reviews 0. Food Chain Magnate is is the eagerly-awaited new release from Splotter and as is traditional for Splotter games its complicated on the long side and relatively unforgiving. The only thing that matters is money.
With all the intensity and engagement on display the game still isnt without its faults. Thats the goal make the most money there are no alternate objectives no prizes for having the best food or the most restaurants or the most brand recognition. Fast Food in the Flying Fifties.
It is a long complex game where every decision matters and the weight of those decisions give the game a very noticeable tension. So how hard can this game be. One of my favorite games is Through the Ages.
Food Chain Magnate Review - with Jason Levine. Food Chain Magnate Review. This is the kind of game that doesnt Force you to behave in a mean way but instead puts a rule set in front of you that ALLOWS you to behave in a mean way and then steps back and throws its hands up.
Their strategic importance can be missed at first and their number is intimidating. The other issue that takes some of the fizz out of Food Chain Magnates soda is its perpetual barrage of dreaded math. Food Chain Magnate is designed first and foremost for clarity in play.
As the game is so unforgiving a player that grasps the strategies early will run roughshod over their competition and this may not sit well in a two-player game. Food Chain may not look like much but dont let it deceive you. At its core Food Chain Magnate is sort of a deckbuilder.
