About Mint Bid, from BoardGameGeek:
Mint Bid is a refreshingly light auction game for 1 to 6 players with easy-to-learn rules, lightning-fast setup, and exciting social gameplay, all in 30 minutes!
The game's compact size makes it easy to put in your pocket and take anywhere. Couple that with its simple rules and setup, and Mint Bid is like carrying a party in your pocket!
The most unique part of Mint Bid is that every winning bid is shared between two adjacent players, so each player has to compete and cooperate to gain a competitive advantage.
Victory in Mint Bid is simple to understand: whoever has the most Victory Points at the end of the game wins!
Getting the most Victory Points isn't always so simple, though. Since all Victory Points are shared between pairs of players, players must strategically win auctions, place Locations, and utilize the Location's special actions to ensure victory.
