What is Big Deal

The stakes are high in this high-energy, competitive, and cut-throat, set-collection card game from Grandpa Beck's Games!

In Cover Your Assets, players compete to become the first millionaire by building towers of matching sets made from 10 different types of asset cards (things like jewels, piggy banks, classic autos, and more). Each new set that is created is stacked crosswise on top of the previous set, covering, and protecting, all the sets beneath it.

The top set of assets in your pile is vulnerable, and can be stolen by other players if they show you a matching asset card, or wild (which are Silver and Gold cards) from their hand. You can defend your stack by showing the challenger a matching card from your own hand. If you do, they can counter with another matching card of their own. The battle rages back and forth until one player can't respond, or bows out.

If you win, you keep the set, if the challenger wins, they take the set. Regardless of who wins, ALL the cards used in the challenge are added to the set, increasing its value and allure to other players.

Filler de cartas en la que cada jugador tiene que ir acumulando sets (de dos cartas iguales) de activos, cada uno con sus propios valores (de 5K a 20K). En su turno, los jugadores pueden bajar un set (De dos), atacar al set superior de otro jugador, descartarse de una carta y robar otra o usar el último descarte y una de la mano para hacer un set. Las batallas están muy graciosas... son como pujas.. y cada jugador tiene que ir jugando cartas del tipo de activo, o utilizar en su defecto, plata, oro o alguna otra carta especial (un x2)... todo lo invertido en el combate junto con el set en pugna
