Better than Ebay --> For Sale and Fist of Dragonstones

In honor of Ebay's 10th anniversary, this week I take a look at two short games with auction mechanics. Both receive high marks...


Unplugged #34: Better than Ebay
It’s like surfing Ebay without ending up with a garage full of junk, two light games based around auction mechanics.

For Sale
Buying a home was never this easy – an excellent auction-based card game playable in 15 minutes.

Fist of Dragonstones
Bid for gemstones to try to gain victory points to get ahead, or win the auctions for special powers to hold your opponents back – where will you spend your fairy gold?
