Top Auctioning Games

In celebration of our own auctioning games launching on Kickstarter next month that are designed by the master Auctioneer himself, Reiner Knizia, Nick thought it fitting to explore the many games which have fostered his love for this genre.  The notable titles in this episode are huge reasons why we love auctioning game Hot Lead and quasi-auctioning game Pumafiosi enough to publish them ourselves.

Rather than rank these bidding games in order from Nick's most to least favorite, he decided it would be more fun to award his favorites by category and type.  Hopefully these categories help you to find a new great game that would fit in perfectly with your collection…
