From BoardGameGeek
In Ground Floor, one to five players adopt the role of entrepreneurs responsible for the survival of their young start-up company. As CEO, a player uses their limited time to manage their business. Time is money, so they have to spend it wisely! Does a player need to hire staff or refine production? What about launching a marketing campaign? Anything is possible with effective use of time, money, and information - but in order to reach that corner office of your skyscraper, a player has to start with everybody else...on the ground floor! The second edition of Ground Floor features gameplay similar to the original edition, but it's been streamlined and shortened. Other changes include a new stock exchange city building, new improvement tiles, Automa rules for solo game play, and most of the Overfunding Achievements expansion.
Ground Floor (Second Edition) has 2 videos from 2 creators: 1 how-to-play guide and 1 playthrough. They date from 2018 to May 2024.
