[Board/Tactical Game]: High Society, reviewed by Tom Vasel (4/4)

http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/11/11419.phtml

Tom Vasel's Summary:

Not as good a filler as \"For Sale\", but it's a fun, nail-biter nonetheless, with a neat twist at the end.

I'm a little baffled that you seem to suggest that the purpose of the game is to teach children social and business ethics. From your description of the game, it's clearly intended as satire.

Then again, maybe I'm just missing your intended irony.
