| power grid is one of the best games made ever. it uses a stock market system that is the juicy of the game and there is a bidding phase too. the interaction between players is very tense, and ther is 2 maps, one on each side of the board, which is a nice addition |

| Great game! Race to get more power plants in more cities and the person who wins in the end is based on who has more money if there is a tie! |

| Power grid is ranked #4 on boardgamegeek.com for a reason. It has a vast amount of depth for upper level players, yet an understandable game mechanic (auction) for less experienced players. Supports up to 6 players. This is the kind of game that, if you lose, you want to play it again immediately to see what you could've done better. Enjoy! |
| Has anyone noticed the similarities between the game cover and the Isaac Asimov book, "The End of Eternity?" Power Grid is a great bidding and management of resources. You bid for power plants to fuel your cities but you must also find the optimal number in order to make a profit. Since cash determines who wins you have be careful where and when to expand. My group had fun with it even though the cover turned some people off. |

| A hugely popular game that combines auctions with network building. Why is it so popular? Because it is just so fun. There is not doubt that this is a great family game. Turn the lights on and plug into this great game before it is too late. |
