Actually, I'd call all working together for a shared victory "socialism" much more readily than having just one winner. I guess the difference is that I'm talking about the concept while just one winner is much closer to what happened when the concept was tried out IRL...
Anyway. I don't think semi co-ops are flawed, but it takes a group that is ready to embrace the concept. I can imagine that a game of Archipelago can be over awfully quickly if the currently losing player is faced with the decision between "everybody loses right now, or you will absolutely lose later on", and non losing players must be ready to enter the mind games. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BGG Down" group.
