From BoardGameGeek
In Reiner Knizia's High Society, players bid against each other to acquire the various trappings of wealth (positive-number and multiplier cards) while avoiding its pitfalls (negative number and divisor cards). While bidding, though, keep an eye on your remaining cash - at the end of the game, even though all those positive-number cards might add up to a win, the player with the least money isn't even considered for victory.
High Society has 59 videos from 48 creators: 35 reviews, 8 how-to-play guides, 4 playthroughs, 5 unboxings and 7 other videos. They date from 2009 to March 2026.
