Going, Going, Gone!: A High-Stakes Board Game (Travel the World. Make Private Deals. Visit Art Fairs. Outbid Your Friends)

Featured in Artsy's 'Become a Globetrotting Billionaire Art Collector in This New Board Game'

Travel the World. Make "private deals". Visit art fairs. Outbid your Friends.

THE GREATEST ART AUCTION OF ALL TIME

Thirty-six masterpieces are up for auction. Are they bargains to be snapped up or over-hyped drains on your finances? You'll never know unless you bid! In this board game for up to six players, you travel the world as an art collector scouring the auction houses, visiting art fairs, and making private deals in search of elusive artworks to complete your collection. The winner is the player with the most valuable collection and the most cash in hand at the end of the game.

- Da Vinci's Mona Leonarda

"In a cheeky nod to the unspoken agendas of most 21st century art collectors, the objective of the game is for the player to accumulate the most valuable collection possible while also retaining the most "cash" at the end of the day." Observer

"Ever fancied yourself as an international art dealer? Casually snapping up Picassos with a 1m price tag and drinking hella Champagne? In the new board game Going, Going, Gone! by illustrator Simon Landrein and publisher Laurence King, you can flex this high roller alter ego for a couple of hours without too much risk of financial ruin." It's Nice That

"The game turns the art market's circuit into a contest to acquire the most valuable art collection." Artsy
