Big Boss review — More like boredroom

Playing Big Boss for review has been the board game version of going to colonial Williamsburg or any other historical reenactment. I’ve been helping Mike get plays of the Renegade reprint of its ancestor Acquire in for review, so I’ve gotten to really play around with early economic
