KS Review of: Obsession: Characters Expansion (with Metal Coins)
Obsession (2.1e) is a 1~4 player, 90mins, competitive, worker placement game (bgg link)
player play as mid 19th century Victorian upper class families
each family (player) competing to better their social position, reputation and family fortune by building new rooms/venues and hosting successful social events with the help of their servants staff (worker meeples) they hire along the game
there is also a goal of attracting the most elligible gentleman and lady in the county to marry into their family for more prestige
there is supposedly another game planned in the Obsession universe which use some of the tiles in Obsession (source)
will be available retail, no kickstarter exclusives it seems
besides having been interested in the game and theme for a long time, i thought the video was an interesting watch going over the issues with how boardgame kickstarters are these days
I haven't played the expansions, but I thought the base decent. It was more interesting than your average Euro, but it didn't blow me away either. I'd say buy it if your into the theme.
