In this game you play a power company seeking to supply power to as many cities as possible.

It's a fun game of balance and strategy.

I love this game, mostly because I'm almost always able to win it! The trick is keeping the perfect balance of all of the elements - oh yeah, and don't worry about staying "environmentally friendly"

Power Grid is wonderful next level game for those who have mastered the gateway games. This is a real brain-burner with tons of depth and an amazing auction mechanic thrown in for good measure.

Great economic and resource management game. A little mathy when trying to add things up but very intense and fun. Best with 4.

I've really enjoyed this game every time I've played it. Each decision is an important one, and you really have to be aware of your opponents if you want to win.
