Paris Connection now in alpha

[PirateKitten]

Paris Connection is now available for alpha testing.

This is a fast network-/portfolio-building game with a train theme, with the objective of having the most valuable stock portfolio at the end of the game. Players can own and trade stocks as well as influence the value of each company.

This is my first game developed for BGA and I welcome any feedback, I'm keen to hear from you! I am also currently developing Chicago Express which I hope to be ready for alpha shortly too - the games use a shared code base so any feedback from this game might also be beneficial for that.

Wow, glad to hear this - Chicago Express in particular is a great game. I hadn't expected to see this given John Bohrer's past opposition to online implementations of his work.

Interesting - that's not something I'm familiar with. The license has been granted for both of these by Queen Games.

Exciting stuff RE: both games. My experience so far has been bug free but will report if anything crops up.

Hi! There is a group of us that have been getting online for a couple hours three times a week to play games while zooming at the same time. We do a lot of playtesting for physical games, but are still in cities with COVID lockdowns so have been doing all our gaming online. I’m a reviewer level, but they are still (rapidly) getting their playcount up high enough.

If possible, I’d love to have them in on the alpha testing of this so we could be playing it during our game nights. We’re always happy to provide notes about what we see.

Their user names:
dan_peterson
jphillipson

mgaler

Hopefully we can loop them in!

They've all been added - keen to hear how you get on

Very interested in testing this out if possible, thanks.

Thanks for adding me! The implementation is great, haven't found any issues with it yet!

Two questions, one: are more cube rails games in development or planned?

Two: Could you also add the user "Rolf S" please?
