First and foremost, I have to say that I really LOVE the theme. I love all the issues related to museums, art, gallerist, artists and exhibitions and all economic elements and jobs perfectly represented in this game such as art dealer, museum curator, artists or auctions, fame, influence… One of the things that better reflects the competent (sometimes ruthless) world of art is that all boils down to money. This is the objective of the game, to gain the most money by buying and selling art, hiring assistants to use the international marker, discovering artist and fostering them, promoting artis
