Grand Austria Hotel
Run a small Vienna hotel, feed the guests, and keep the Emperor happy.
What it is
Turn of the century Vienna, and you own a small hotel with big plans. Dice set how strong each action is this round, guests wait in your bistro for coffee, cake, wine and strudel, and fed guests move into rooms for points. Three times a game the Emperor checks on you. A good fit for anyone who likes a tidy engine and a slice of cake.
What we love
- The more dice sit on an action, the stronger it is, so every roll changes the plan.
- Guests cost 0 to 3 krone, so the free one is not always the right one.
- Three random Politics cards change the race for bonus points each game.
Honest trade-offs
- Every guest left in your bistro at the end costs 5 points.
- You get only 14 actions across the game, so one wasted turn shows.
