Grandpa Beck’s Cover Your Assets Card Game
Cover Your Assets
This is Grandpa Beck and it’s my pleasure to introduce you to Cover Your Assets a game developed by my wife our family and myself around our kitchen table. We hope you enjoy playing it as much as we’ve enjoyed developing it.
In Cover Your Assets you amass a fortune by collecting and building an alternating tower of matching pairs of asset cards. You’ve got to be careful though because the top set of assets on your stack can be stolen by other players if they hold a matching asset or a gold or silver wild card.
Every time a stack is stolen it increases in value making it a more enticing target to steal and harder to hold onto. The best way to protect a valuable set it to cover those assets with a new set of assets. You literally Cover Your Assets. See what we did there?
This game is fast-paced competitive and a more than a little addictive. Will it teach you to be wise with your financial decisions in life or how to be a savvy investor? Absolutely not. Will it cause bouts of laughter good-humored competition and fun-filled gatherings? We certainly hope so.
Its quite difficult to explain why its such a riot to play but let me try. Its like a combination of a white elephant gift exchange an estate sale and Robin Hood (because you steal from the rich and give it to yourself... wait thats not like Robin Hood at all... oh well hopefully you get the point). Your fortune can be made or lost in just a few turns. Youre never out of the game until the last card is played.
Bottom line it’s a terrific game that will be loved by everyone you share it with. A game that you will want to play again and again and again. Try it we know you’ll enjoy it - that is as long as you are a person who enjoys fun (we cant promise tax accountants will like it).
Wishing you many fun-filled evenings around your table with those you love-
Grandpa Beck
