Mercury Games Infamy Strategy Board Game by Travis R. Chance | Auction, Bidding & Worker Placement Sci-Fi Game | 3–4 Players | 60 Min | Ages 13+

Enter the corrupt and dangerous world of ARES-6, a Martian mining colony where influence, reputation, resources, and the right connections can determine who rises to power. Infamy, designed by Travis R. Chance and published by Mercury Games, is a competitive strategy board game for 3–4 players, combining economic decision-making with a dark science-fiction underworld theme.

Players take on the roles of ambitious freelancers competing for influence among three powerful factions. Throughout the game, you'll bid for valuable contacts, gather resources, complete missions, deploy your influence, and develop your reputation while trying to prevent rivals from gaining an advantage.

At the heart of Infamy is its distinctive “Pay to Play” bidding system. Players sacrifice bidding power simply to participate in auctions, creating difficult decisions about when to compete aggressively and when to conserve resources. Spending too much can leave you vulnerable later, while holding back may allow an opponent to secure valuable opportunities.

Featuring auction/bidding, worker placement, simultaneous action selection, secret deployment and direct player interaction, Infamy provides a strategic experience aimed at teens and adult board-game enthusiasts. A typical game supports 3–4 players, takes approximately 60 minutes, and is recommended for ages 13 years and above.
