Forks

Embezzle or Invest? Make yourself richer and risk getting discovered, or grow the companies, enriching the competition? In Forks you give these problems to your competing boardroom members, sharing the wealth whilst shifting the blame, and always trying to avoid an audit. Forks is a fun quick competitive card game in which players aim to give their neighbour a financially disastrous decision and choose the least bad option from those given to them. Working together, in the most un-cooperative way. In Forks players draw three cards from the deck, choose one to embezzle (add to their hand) and pass the other two on, to the next player who chooses which one to embezzle and which to invest (add to the central tableau). At the end of the game, only the three companies with the highest values in the middle will score positive values, the rest will be audited, and players will score negative points for embezzling from those companies. —description from the designer
