PIO #18 - Played It Once - Obsession


Listen Later

Today we discuss Obsession by Dan Hallagan with BoardGameCo  and Board Games In A Minute. In the game you are the head of a respected but troubled family estate in mid-19th century Victorian England, in which your goal is to improve your estate. Players will build a deck of Victorian gentry, renovate their estate by acquiring building tiles from a centralized builders' market, and manipulate an extensive service staff through a unique worker placement mechanic.  The player who best meets the expectations of the rich, while accumulating victory points and courting the hand of the wealthy will win the game.
