A Euro-style game in which co-owners of a chocolate company are at cross purposes on what sort of treats they want to sell. Players bid for profit shares on the different products (from cheapest to most expensive: cocoa beans, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, white chocolate, dark chocolate, truffles), then take turns placing workers of different skill levels along the factory line. Depending on how the workers are placed, the factory will produce different sets of goods. When four different types of products are ready to ship, the players cash in.

Number of Players: 3-6
Length of Game: 60-90 minutes
For Ages: 15 and up

Price: $14.95

"This is a medium to heavyweight game that creates a complex economy of cross incentives between players. At the end of each day, some products will be produced no matter what, but it's a matter of getting the ones you want made vs. your colleagues, so that you can cash in. This is the most ambitions game design to date for Pair-of-Dice Games."
