In Bootleggers, players take on the role of enterprising bosses seeking to make a name for themselves in the illegal alcohol trade at the height of the 1920's prohibition era. Deceit, lies, and alliances of convenience are the norm as players attempt to control distribution through money and corruption by muscling in on the competition, paying off the local law authorities, building underground speakeasies, and shipping truck-loads of hooch. There are lots of tough choices and some strategic options. Good with four, but best with five or six. At its heart, it is an economic game with a criminal side. First to $100,000 wins. The game fits the theme very well and has excellent artwork and components. Most important of all, it's fun.

I've played a few games now and despite some "what the heck are we doing?" the first time you play, there is a a whole lot of cutthroat, in-depth play here. Making deals, screwing over other players, trying to remember if the other players have a card that could screw you and getting to talk like a mobster... from whatever city you want it to be in all make this game a hoot. Great game!

Biitleggers, the game

Bootleggers is a game about supply chain ecconomics, with greast doses of laughter, fun and intrigue mixed in. Players seek to produce, transport and sell their bathtub gin and reap the profits. There are a number of stradegies that will win the game, and each time we play, the game takes on different twists. A full game requires about 90 minutes, but there are a number of ways that it can be made shorter. Our family loves board games that change, and this has become one of our very favorite.
