QE

About this board game

QE, standing for Quantitative Easing, is an innovative and engaging board game that takes you into the world of high-stakes economics. Set against the backdrop of the 2008 financial crisis, you and your fellow players take on the role of national central banks, using your financial prowess to bail out companies and stimulate the economy.

The game’s theme and setting are intricately woven into the gameplay. In the midst of a global recession, you’re tasked with the responsibility of keeping your nation’s economy afloat. The consequences of your decisions ripple throughout the game, creating a fascinating balance between risk and reward.

The core mechanics of QE revolve around bidding and economic strategy. Each round, players will bid on companies to bail out, with the ability to bid any amount of money. The catch? The player who spends the most money by the end of the game automatically loses. This introduces a thrilling layer of strategy and bluffing, as players must carefully manage their spending while trying to outbid their opponents.

What sets QE apart from other board games is its unique unlimited bidding system. You have the power to print as much money as you want to win companies, but you must also be cautious not to overspend. This mechanic brilliantly simulates the real-world decisions made by central banks during the financial crisis, adding a layer of realism to the game.
