DKT Urlaub

Canary Islands or tuscany?

DKT, the Austrian equivalent to Monopoly, has been given a new version. You invest in most favored holiday destinations and buy hotels, cruise ship companies, restaurants or boarding houses in Austria, Italy, Croatia, Spain, USA, Turkey or Egypt. In addition to the standard rules – roll & move, buy real estate lots, build boarding houses and hotels on them and pay or collect rent – there are some new features: An airplane marker starts on site #24, and a train marker on site #4. If you end your move on the site with the airplane you can use the plane immediately and move to any site of your choice and continue your move there. Such a movement is not considered as "passing Start". In analogy to the plane you can move instantly 10 steps in clockwise direction when you reach the site with the train. If you reach sites #24 or #4 you can call back plane or train and move with the respective vehicle. In addition to buying boarding-houses and hotels - the equivalent to houses and hotels in the core game - you can also buy souvenirs, if still available in the respective country. You can only own one souvenir per country and can hand it back anytime for half the buying price, which you receive from the bank. A direct sale to another player is not possible. If you own at least 10.000 Euros you can declare yourself the winner, even if another player should own more money at that moment.

With this variant Piatnik introduces yet another modernization of the standard mechanisms, the new details are well-integrated and thus provide a new and yet familiar game which is a must for all fans of this game principle.
