Description Description
In The Networks, you and your opponents are new television networks, and you need new programming. For this, you’ll need Shows, Stars, and Ads. Shows need Stars and Ads. Stars give you bonus viewers (points), and Ads give you extra money. You’ll need everything you can get; you'll have a small amount of resources and time, and you must grab the latest hot show before your opponents. And some Stars will give their best effort only if you put them on in the proper conditions. For example, some Stars only want to be put on dramas. Other Stars want to be the only Star on the show. And your Ads will give you the most money only if you put them on in the correct time slot. Finally, Shows age and viewers lose interest, so you have to keep your line-up fresh by canceling shows and sending them into reruns. Fortunately, you can get viewers from your reruns, and you'll get bonuses if you get a lot of shows of the same genre throughout the game. If you need a special push, Network Cards can give you special powers — but will a Network Card be better than another action? You'll have to make that call. The player with the most viewers after five seasons wins!

This game has everything I love: drafting, engine building, being the boss. I'm completely impressed by how balanced this game is. I've had the pleasure of playing a handful of times, and it's impossible to tell who's going to win until the very end.

Great game, played at Origins, purchased from Gil right away! Gil was nice enough to sign a copy! Look forward to playing more and to the expansions. The card names and figuring out who they are modeled after may be the best part!!!

A masterpiece of a Euro. The theme is fully integrated into the game play, with clever in-jokes to match the quirky artwork. Great balance of depth and accessibility. And the game scales incredibly well at all player counts.

It's a pretty funny and quirky game, there are some cards that can decidedly change the flow of the game but there is still a random aspect to the game, especially with two players.
