A simple, fast and very intelligent game. You should invest in companies, but you need to be careful not to invest too much in one or invest not so much in several. At the end of the round, whoever has the most cards from each company will receive payment from their opponents for each card they have from the same company. As part of the game is exposed and part is hidden, there is always an atmosphere of what could happen, as the game can turn around at the end of the round in a very interesting way. I thought it was very good!

Für diese Boxgröße und Simplizität seines Zuges, gibt es echt sehr coole Entscheidungen. Karten ziehen und Spielen, so könnte man das sehen. 3-5 Spieler wahrscheinlich die optimale Spielerinnenanzahl, da es sonst zu lange dauert und man zu wenig Kontrolle über die Firmen hat.
I like the risk of trying to race in a suit. Not sure if it works that well with euro types, they feel turned off by being punished for half-effort (so I emphasize that each card usually costs a coin). Players can delay the game by picking up and dropping one card, but then they're not developing a tableau. I like that the game develops depending on how everyone plays, if a suit is obviously bad then it'll become safe for that one player. My sister once said, "weird, it feels like I'm actually learning something about investing here." Which may be the slight downfall, so many eurogamers expect to be rewarded for doing anything at all. Probably works better without them anyway.
Such a great game, in such a small package. If you have more stocks than the other players, then they pay you 3 coins for each of the same stock you own. The player with the most coins wins. So easy to learn, but so hard to master.
Strategic & feels complicated enogh, but still simple to explain & get the hang if. I have this tradition of deciding what IRL company each of the fake companies should represent each game.
