Steve Jackson games

This is the first addition to the non-computer games collection in a long time, and it can of course be blamed on Henrik :-) ... As of right now, 17/5 2001, all we've had time and players for are two-player games. Illuminati's ideal player load is about four to six, since there's lots of options for trades, pacts, bribery and other lovelyness. Still, it's good high quality fun even with two, so games with more people should be a real blast! I guess playing two player might be a good way to learn the rules well too, since game times should be the shortest and all the bargaining/backstabbing stuff is effectively out of play.

Want a brief overview of the game? Like I'd spare you even if you said no :-) ... The goal of the game is simple: take over the world! Each player controls an Illuminati, a secret society. The Illuminati then struggles to take control of different groups in the world, groups like Mad Geniuses for a Better Tomorrow, I.R.S, CIA, California, KGB, Robotic Sea Monsters and more. Starting to feel some kind of humour theme here? Yes, give the man a hamster! This game is fun, loads of it!

There's a definitive risk of future investments in Steve Jackson games ... And also a risk of extensions to this page (the length of this game description really isn't up to my usual babbling standards after all :-) ...
