Acquire is a game of timing and strategy, a game where, as a real estate agent, the player assumes the role in building his fortune. Acquire the right hotel chains at just the right price using nothing but your money and your wits to get ahead. You'll also have to monitor your opponents who are after a majority share ownership of the biggest and most prime properties in their respective deals that involve mergers and stock market dealings.
In Acquire, you are going to buy and sell stocks in order to finance your hotel empire, really choosy as to where to invest your shares and when. The game requires that you manage your resources in such a strategic manner as merging hotel chains in order to raise their value, adding new hotels in order to increase your capital. The aim of the game is to emerge as the wealthiest player by outwitting your rivals and building the most lucrative hotel empire.
A classic game that has thrilled financial thinkers from time immemorial, Acquire is ideally suited for all those who enjoyed games like Monopoly, though the main variation here is its stock market game strategies and high-stakes competitions. Meant for 2-6 players, it's an intriguing challenge wherein every decision taken can either make or break the chances of emerging as a victor. If you think you are all ready to be tested in strategic thinking, then Acquire is just what it takes to hold your attention from beginning to end.

We were on vacation and saw this game in a little book store. We almost passed it up for some old book. We got taking to the owner and she explained quickly how to play and that it was one of her favorite games. We bought it and learned the rules fairly quickly. It's addicting.
