BANKS

In the year 2511 in a society run through Augmented Reality; omnipotent corporations have replaced each continent. A fast paced, cutting edge game known as BANKS is the neo-gladiator approved sport on Earth, with teams embodying each of their corporate spheres. As players you fight for your sphere's personal freedoms and to gain corporate favor. In BANKS you face up to five various opponents. With the disks distributed over the light rails, your goal at the end of the game is the product of the number of disks in each captured color. Highest score wins, AMASS! On your turn, move one of your disks in a straight line over any number of open spaces, possibly banking off edges or corners of the board, (like pool). You may stop at any point after moving at least one space. If, after banking off at least one edge, your disk lands on a space occupied by any other disk (even one of your own disks), capture that disk by replacement. At the end of the game, your score is the number of disks in each captured color multiplied. —description from the designer
