Ascaron Entertainment sent over a press release announcing The Great Art Race, a game for the entire family where the player and his relatives chase around the world during the Golden Twenties and hunt for their uncle‘s stolen collection of paintings. Only the person who manages to purchase the most valuable pieces of the collection will inherit everything. In order to acquire the desired paintings, the player must visit auctions all over Europe and America. Because money is always short, player must visit colonial towns around the world in order to build plantations. These plantations will produce goods, which can be sold – ideally at a considerable profit. The Great Art Race features 23 authentic cities worldwide, 36 authentic historical paintings and detailed descriptions, hot seat-mode (up to 5 players at one PC), 7 game objectives to choose from, an extensive economic system and more (check full article for details). The Great Art Race will be available in March 2005.
