About the game

What you do in a play session

For Sale Autorama captures the thrill of vehicle trading in a fast, breezy package that will please fans of auctions and economic decision‑making. The game unfolds in three clear phases. First, players bid to hire advisors – cards that grant bonuses in the later steps. In the second phase, each player spends their cash to purchase vehicles (cars, motorcycles, trailers, semi‑trucks, etc.). The final phase is the sell‑off: the vehicles are auctioned again and the player who extracts the highest profit wins. The components are just cards, so setup is virtually nil and the learning curve is gentle: you simply learn that you can pay to improve your purchase order or to lock in a good selling price. While the rules are simple, strategic depth emerges from choosing the right advisors and managing your hand, which directly affect your earnings. In 30‑45 minutes, with 3‑6 players, For Sale Autorama delivers tense bidding, price swings, and the satisfying feeling of closing a great deal. The artwork features colorful road‑themed illustrations that bring the vehicle market to life. It’s a standalone game that already includes the Advisors expansion, so no other For Sale titles are required. Perfect for groups that enjoy quick, easy‑to‑learn games that spark laughter as someone sells a truck for less than a compact car.
