You and your adversaries are clerks in Jacob Marley’s moneylending firm.You hope to bring glory to yourself and your family by impressing the vicious young man at the top, even if it means forging ponderous chains that may compel you to walk this mortal plane for all eternity. To sweeten the pot, Marley has promised his star performer a gigantic bonus, half-interest in the firm, and a get-out-of-Hell free card. Players use Jacob Marley’s money and wander the streets of London searching for people and businesses desperate enough to take out a loan. Having loans outstanding earns points with Marley, while getting your loans paid off earns more money. Whoever finishes with the best combined score (money plus points) wins the game and becomes Jacob Marley’s best friend for life.
Jacob Marley, Esquire is a detailed board game ofusury, treachery, and ruthless capitalism, just the thing to get you into the holiday spirit!
