Description

In Showbiz, you are theatre managers and must hire performers who will bring in the most money from the public. There are six different styles of performers and public opinion will favor different styles.

Each turn, public opinion changes. Then, players use a bidding system to acquire performers. Once contracts have been negotiated, profit is calculated depending on how well performers match the public's desires.

The game ends after 13 turns, and the player with the highest score is the winner.
