  1. Venture

    All details for the board game Venture and similar games

    Players purchase companies with sets of resource cards that have different monetary values. Submitting a set of matching symbols earns more than their face value, making set collection a key strategy. Purchased companies are arranged based on matching letters, and the top company in each stack is vulnerable to takeover attempts by other players. Scoring occurs whenever a player draws a victory card, and the game ends when the company stack is depleted.
