Bid King

Bid King is a four-player auction game built around bluffing, hidden information and outmaneuvering the other collectors. You bid on collectibles, use your collector’s special ability and try to profit while pushing opponents into costly mistakes.

Auction modes

In Sealed Bid Mode, bids stay confidential for the whole round, so you must guess what the others are offering. In Standard Mode, bids are visible, but can still be used to mislead: a rival might be testing the waters or setting a trap, and a sudden raise might signal genuine interest or an attempt to draw you into a bad deal.

Collector skills

Each collector has a different past and a unique information-gathering skill. Some can reveal an opponent’s bidding range, some can sense the true value of collectibles, and others can spread false information to deceive their rivals. Use these abilities to turn differences in what each player knows to your advantage.

Reveal and collection

Winning an auction leads to a gradual reveal: as you unbox the lot, its items emerge from the fog one by one. A haul that first looks like scrap may contain a rare collectible.

Collectibles you secure at low prices go into a 3D digital collection cabinet, where you can view them. You can also use rumors and well-timed bids to bait an opponent into overpaying for junk or making a costly mistake. The aim is not only to make money, but also to leave your rivals with losses.
