Modern Art Abstract Board Game

Modern art is a great game with excellent production value. For those unfamiliar with the game, players take turns playing cards which depict pieces of art from 5 different artists, and then the played cards are auctioned via various auction styles. After the art is auctioned off, their value is determined, and players receive money (points) for the value of their art collection. The mechanics in this game are very thoughtful, and there is good room for banter and table talk, for those who like to have fun with that. The art in the cards is vibrant, and inspired; each artist in the game -although they were artists that I'd never heard of- has a very unique style. My main criticism of this game is that it tends to play longer than the box would indicate, but I've never minded that too much since we've always had fun the entire time. This is a great game for casual and seasoned gamers alike!

This is a family favorite, and the quality is exceptional. 10/10.

Really fun interactive game based on art and economics. Get into the role of an actioneer and you will have a blast.

Great game!!

This game does something that no other game does.

This is a game from renowned designer Reiner Knizia that has withstood the test of time. The reviews here and online (e.g., YouTube, Board Game Geek, etc.) are generally accurate. The production values are good. There is, however, a caveat. If you are thinking of sleeving your cards to protect them from wear and tear, the publisher's recommendation on the back of the box (i.e., Gamegenic "Sand" series in matte) will NOT fit the cards; the sleeves are too tight. It is very difficult to slip the cards inside, and if you do by chance manage, the cards will pucker because the fit is too snug. Don't waste a $10 purchase on them.

Just a fantastic game. And this new edition is really terrific with respect to the look and the components. Probably the very best value I've had in a game purchase in a long time. Great game. Great edition. Very good price.

I have enjoyed this game since my first introduction in 2014. It's a solid and easy to explain 3 to 5 player auction game. At the time it was out of print and 2 versions existed on the used market. Due to rarity it was hard to acquire. This edition features great, actual modern art with a gorgeous portfolio and bio in the rule book of each included artist. The box is larger than prior versions however it's not oversized if you store bookwise. It fits in just fine with my collection. I like that the cards are a larger format, Dixit sized, to support the real art that is provided.

Essa versão está melhor que a nacional. Vem com martelo de madeira e as fichas de pontos são fichas e não token de papelão. Ainda vem com um insert funcional

A lot of fun. Like it.

Antes que nada este es un juego de mesa moderno. Si no conoces los juegos de mesa modernos pero eres una persona que le gustan mucho los juegos es probable que te termine por gustar este juego ya que no es tan complejo. Este juego es totalmente acerca de subastas así que si no te gusta esta mecánica mejor te conviene pasar de comprarlo. En el título menciono que es el juego de subastas por excelencia ya que es el único que conozco que maneja cuatro tipos de subastas distintos. Eso hace a este juego un poco más variado a comparación de otros juegos de subastas como Ra. Otro punto a favor es la temática que tiene la cual es sobre comerciar obras de arte. Esta temática puede ser de interés para gran parte de adolescentes y adultos. Esta versión es la más reciente que hay y es la mejor que ha habido, sobre todo estéticamente. La primera versión de este juego salió en 1992, por lo que habla muy bien de él he hecho de que se sigan produciendo versiones nuevas para este título. El único detalle es que esta versión no incluye el pequeño caballete que anteriormente incluían otras versiones pero bueno, este tipo de recortes siempre se han hecho sobre todo para seguir teniendo un precio competitivo en el mercado actual. Al menos tiene un pequeño martillo de madera que uno si quiere puede usar como si se tratara de una subasta real. Recomiendo este juego para quien ande buscando incluir un juego de subastas para su colección.

Fantastic version of an amazing game. If you're looking for a fun time with your friends, you can't go wrong with this classic auction game. Reiner Knizia at his best.

Un clásico de Reiner Knizia, si te gustan las subastas este es el juego! Esta edición de arte moderno es mi preferida!
