What is the best place to eat popcorn? The movie theater! And that’s where it all happens in this bag-building game.
In Popcorn, you manage your own movie theater, and you try to show the best movies to make your Guests happy. The game plays out over nine rounds; each divided in 3 phases. You may buy a new movie, build or upgrade your theater, or use advertising to attract new guests.
You draw Guests at random from a “bag” to see who has shown up and place them in the right seats to take the best actions, which will let you improve your cinema, influence your Guests, grow your audience, and gain money and Popcorn.
After watching films in your theaters, guests might want to try other cinemas as the competition is fierce and they will do anything to attract your guests. But you will probably do the same… At the end of the last round, the player with the most Popcorn wins.
Show the best movies, much better than the ones from across the road, and offer the most comfortable seats to meet your audience’s expectations. The tutorial might help you to set up your show. Or, you can get ready to run the best theater here: https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=popcorn
Let’s give all the credit they deserve to Victor Saumont, the game designer, and Iello, the publisher, for allowing us to have the game on BGA. And let’s not forget to celebrate Sir Heo for the adaptation.
This was your Monday release.
We hope to make a never-ending story with you in the new year, so take care and play fair…
