A Journey Through Time

Acquire isn’t just a game; it’s a piece of gaming history. Designed by Sid Sackson, this beloved classic has evolved through various editions since its introduction in 1964. While the game’s essence has remained intact, its packaging and components have seen numerous redesigns through the decades.

Originally part of the prestigious 3M Bookshelf Series, the game faced some confusion regarding its release year, with many sources incorrectly marking it as 1962. But the journey began in 1963 when Sackson pitched his innovative concept, originally titled “Vacations.” After modifications, 3M launched the game, and it quickly captivated players with its engaging mechanics.

From the test market release in December 1963 to its transition to Avalon Hill and eventual rights acquisition by Hasbro, Acquire has continuously captivated generations of players. Each edition brought its own unique flavor, from plastic tiles to innovative game components.

In recent years, the excitement continues with the arrival of Renegade Game Studio’s partnership with Hasbro, introducing both Classic and Tycoon modes. Players can choose to enjoy the game with or without tertiary stockholder merger bonuses, refreshing the experience for both newcomers and seasoned fans alike. Plus, don’t miss the highly anticipated 60th Anniversary edition, featuring high-quality weighted poker chips and Special Powers Variant cards!

Step into the exhilarating world of corporate strategy and wealth-building. Acquire is not just a game; it's a timeless journey full of thrilling decisions and rewarding gameplay. Are you ready to become the next business tycoon?
