3 Ring Circus

The game takes place over several rounds where each player can perform one of two main actions:

1️⃣ Hire an artist

Choose an Artist card from your hand.

Pay his fee. To do this, discard enough Money cards to at least equal his fee.

When you perform the Hire Artist action, assign the chosen artist to one of your 3 tracks. The card then takes its place in that row, so that the values ​​of the cards in the same track are always in strictly ascending order.

Placing cards on a track can increase the number of pedestals in your circus or earn you victory points at the end of the game.

2️⃣ Give a show

Move your circus onto the stage and put on a show:

Towns : to win Silver cards

Mid-sized cities : Offer fame points or Ticket cards featuring featured artists.

Metropolises : require a more elaborate show with specific restrictions on featured artists and pedestal levels.

Leave a marquee to mark your passage and influence the control of regional majorities.

Other important mechanics

• The B&B Circus pawn moves and influences the endgame.

• Regional majorities : the more marquees you have in a region, the more points you score in the counts.

• City restrictions : Some cities require specific artists.

End of the game: When the B&B Circus pawn has completed a full loop to return to its starting metropolis.
