*ABOUT UNDISCOVERED GAMES*
Welcome to my YouTube channel dedicated to lesser-known & forgotten board games. My mission is to create video content for old and forgotten board games so they don't get buried and lost in the past, to relentlessly hunt for hidden gems and share my favorite discoveries with the world, and to help others research these games easier. This is still a relatively small channel trying to build an audience who appreciates these hidden gems and older games. If you want to go on this journey to discover the undiscovered, please subscribe to the channel, share our content, and consider becoming a member or giving a small donation to help us grow.
*EPISODE 86: Paradise Profiteers* features an old-school auction gem from Reiner Knizia. Published by Kosmos in 1993 with art from Franz Vohwinkel, it's a wonder this did not gain more popularity over the years. It has a cult following among Knizia fans and the OG gaming crowd, but it's wildly out of print and hard to find because it never got a reprint. While it's highly group-dependent because of the negotiations and the extreme simplicity, I find the game to be fascinating for what it is. I particularly love how quick it plays and how much variety you get from game to game. I could teach this game to a 6-year-old or my grandmother, but I would never get tired of playing this because each game develops organically from just 12 random tiles and the players' reactions to those tiles. It's incredibly tricky to win this, which makes it a highly addictive filler game. Oh, and the icing on the cake? It's the _only_ board game I know of that uses a Vickrey auction system!
