It's the Kickstarter Edition of the World's Fair 1893 Board Game. Note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. The 1893 World's Fair in Chicago was an amazing international event showing off great achievements in science, tech, culture, and entertainment. As fair organizers, players work hard to boost their influence and get the grand exhibits. The organizer with the best reputation at the fair's start wins. In each turn, the active player sends a supporter to one of five areas, collects cards, new cards are added, and then the next player goes. The five areas are like Fine Arts and Electricity. Some cards are exhibit proposals, some are influential people giving bonus supporters, and others are tickets for attractions. The game has three scoring rounds, triggered when players collect a certain number of Midway tickets. Players earn reputation points for leading in supporters in an area and gathering the most tickets. Area leaders also get approval for matching exhibit proposals. At the end, players gain points based on their approved exhibits. We're happy to back campaigns to offer games like this one on TheGameSteward. A large part of your spending on this game will go towards backing new Kickstarter games. If you have purchase questions or need game advice, contact The Game Steward.
