Acquire is a multi-player mergers and acquisitions themed board game. It is played with tiles representing hotels that are arranged on the board, play money and stock certificates. The object of the game is to earn the most money by developing and merging hotel chains. When a chain in which a player owns stock is acquired by a larger chain, players earn money based on the size of the acquired chain. At the end of the game, all players liquidate their stock in order to determine which player has the most money. It was one of the most popular games in the 1960s 3M bookshelf game series, and the only one still published in the United States.

  • Acquire (englisch: erwerben) ist ein klassisches Brettspiel von Spieleautor Sid Sackson. Es handelt sich um ein Wirtschaftsstrategiespiel, bei dem die Spieler durch An- und Verkauf von Aktien im Zusammenhang mit der Gründung von Hotelketten Geld verdienen. Acquire erschien das erste Mal 1962 in den USA bei 3M Company. Inzwischen hat es diverse Neuauflagen gegeben, unter anderem auch verschiedene in deutscher Sprache. In Deutschland erschien es bei Schmidt Spiele auch unter den Titeln Hotel-Haie und Hotel-König (1982). (de)

  • アクワイア (Acquire) は、アメリカのボードゲーム。1962年にシド・サクソンによって創案され、かつてあった3Mのゲーム部門から発売されていたが、1976年にアバロンヒルが権利を買収した。そしてアバロンヒルがハズブロに買収された後も、引き続き販売されている。 ホテルチェーンの投資と合併をテーマにしたボードゲーム。ルールが単純で、途中で誰かが脱落することがなく、1時間から1時間半位で1ゲームが終わるなどの理由から、家族で遊ぶのにも適しているが、一方で上達には戦略性も問われるため、ゲーム慣れした人々にも人気がある。 (ja)
