I registered this game as soon as it was released. If you love the board game "Acquire" than this is the game to get for your computer. I can understand how some are confused as to how to play, but this is almost a direct translation of the board game. I suggest you look up the rules to "Acquire." I think you'll have a much better understanding of what to do. Venture's gameplay instructions are not that difficult to grasp anyway.

My only peave is that I'm not a big fan of the "wood look." I much prefered the original basic look. It was lighter. All this wood maked the game seem "thick."

Otherwise, great game!

Is this a game? The scoring is impossible to understand and I frankly think it has a bug. The gameplay is inexpliccable. It took a good while before I realized that I end each turn by pressing a button that for some reason is called Get Property.

Based on the demo I don't see why I or anybody should enjoy the full version.
