## Description
_Computer Foreign Exchange_ is a conversion of Avalon Hill’s own 1979 board
game. It retains all the original rules and options and can be played by two
to four players but does not feature any AI opponents. Each player takes
control of a business with assets all around the world. The game world
consists of 24 cities in nine countries which are evenly divided between the
players. Each player has when starting out one sales office in each controlled
city. The first phase of the game is a trading session where players can trade
cities they control. Players should attempt to hold all cities within one
country since that allow them to build manufacturing subsidiaries and thereby
increase profits.
After the trading session the players take turns planning their strategies for
each fiscal year. There are several options that can be made: purchase sales
offices or manufacturing subsidiaries, hedge foreign assets, borrow foreign
currencies, use a cash management consulting service, sell sales offices or
manufacturing subsidiaries, use a foreign exchange advisory service and list
ownership and assets of each city. After the planning has been completed
players enter their jets and fly to the different cities. Player can control
this by holding down the spacebar to fuel the jet and the longer it is held
down the longer it will fly. If players land in an opponent’s city they have
to pay for it.
The game goes on until one player has reached a target amount of money. The
target is based on which difficulty level (1-9) is chosen before the start of
a game. The higher the difficulty the more net worth is required to win.
