I was under a game fog and forgot to take a picture of the game.
Indonesia was another game that I heard good buzz about and I was glad that I got an opportunity to play it. The game was taught by Ray from the Houston game group. He was very friendly and gave a good explination of the rules. Since I had to leave at
1pm, I made sure that the group was ok with calling the end early. It was a good thing that I did that since one of the gamers who joined I knew was a slow player from a previous game. This was a very interesting game about companies shipping goods to
cities. There were some interesting mechanics. Money that you spent bidding on turn order went into your own bank and was locked for the rest of the game. And money at the end of the game was your victory points. So you were essentially reducing your
fluidity and were then unable to use it for mergers. Which brings me to the next interesting aspect. You can take two similiar companies and join them together. People who can take the new company can then bid on them. So you can loose a company that
you are investing in. This makes you revalue your company since you pay the owners for control of the company. You can even merge spices and rice to create and Indonesian dish called Siap Faji (microwave meals). Another interesting aspect is that
cities demand all good that can ship to it. So that if it costs you more to ship it than you receive in profit, then you still must ship the goods.
Another player in this game was evidently pissed off at his position. He then start acting chaotically by performing actions just to see what would happen (whether it would benefit him or not). This was pretty fustrating. Still, I enjoyed playing and
will pay the high price for this game.
