Description

In the Game Builders, you will play as a builder trying to fulfill the most prototype orders that you can. Spend money to create beautiful game components, combine components to build games, and fulfill orders to get glory, or at least the satisfaction of a customer. But don't dawdle, because the longer you spend building, the more time your rival builders have to collect money to fund their orders. Win the most glory and you can crown yourself the victor.

The Game Builders uses time as a resource gathering mechanic. To create the components you will need to fulfill an order, you will spend money and time. For the amount of time that the component takes to create, each other player advances a token on their time track by that amount. At the start of a player's turn, they get money based on how far their token advanced on their time track during the round. the more you build, the more money your rivals will collect. Thus, you should use your time wisely!

*Rules are included in the printed version of the game. They are printed on a Jumbo Card.
