## Description
Squire: The Collector of the Glorious Rarities is a family‑friendly game set in Victorian England, where each player steps into the shoes of an ambitious art dealer. Your aim is to assemble the most impressive collection of rare artifacts by buying valuable works, staging exhibitions, and taking part in auctions. Point‑to‑point movement has you traversing the board like a courier delivering and picking up items, while set collection pushes you to build combos of artworks that score extra points. The real spice is the dynamic trading system: the market reacts to your purchases and sales, shifting prices based on supply and demand, so the timing of placing a piece in your manor can be as crucial as the piece itself. Two difficulty levels are provided – an easy mode for newcomers and a hard mode that challenges seasoned players to fine‑tune their engine‑building strategy. With high‑quality components, illustrated cards featuring fictional masterpieces, money tokens, and a board reminiscent of London’s streets, Squire offers a 40‑to‑60‑minute experience for 2‑4 players, with a light weight (2/5), perfect for relaxed evenings. If you enjoy economic themes, resource management, and a dash of historic charm, you’ll love trying to out‑collect the badger who famously bought a Da Vinci portrait.
