The Gallerist (board game)

Modern Hobby Strategy Games

The Gallerist is a 2015 worker placement strategy board game designed by Vital Lacerda and published by Eagle-Gryphon Games. Players take the role of an art gallery owner, competing to acquire artwork, stage exhibitions and build reputation within the contemporary art market that the game's systems simulate. It belongs to the wave of heavier, economy driven worker placement designs that defined Lacerda's output in the mid 2010s, layering multiple interlocking resource tracks onto the core worker placement mechanic. The design was recognized with the 2015 Cardboard Republic Tactician Laurel, an award given to strategically demanding tabletop designs, cementing its reputation among hobby board gamers as one of the more intricate worker placement titles of its year.
