Cirque

From BoardGameGeek:

Cirque is a game about the joys and wonders of the circus. In Cirque, players take on the role of a Ringleader as they scout for talent, hire performers, build the reputation of their circus, and carry out performances. Each player builds their circus individually on their circus boards, and the main action tiles provide spaces of interaction and competition. Cirque is designed around friendly competition, immense replayability, and appreciation for the circus and its craft. Alongside 180 unique performer cards, game setup includes randomized individual and shared goals to make each game a unique experience. In combining tableau building and engine building mechanics, Cirque presents a fresh take on these genres by staging two distinct venues, the Big Top and the Sideshow. Each performer contains abilities specific to each venue, forcing players to strategize how to carefully arrange their roster of acts for maximum effect. Performers also have reputation requirements that players must plan for in developing their hiring strategy. Game end is triggered when a player has completely filled their circus, though they do not necessarily win the game. The winner is the player who creates the most wondrous circus through performer value, earned achievements, performance-driven resources, and global renown. -description from the publisher
