El Chino (1981)

Spanish game for adults from the early 80s, set in the "Barrio Chino" (the red-light district) of Barcelona. With mechanics similar to Monopoly, the players assume the roles of prostitutes, thieves, and transsexuals. The goal of the game is to earn more money than the other players by stealing, selling drugs, or having sex, within a time limit chosen by the players at the start of the game.

Juego español para adultos de principios de los 80 ambientado en el "Barrio Chino" de Barcelona, centro en aquella época de prostitución y drogas. Con una mecánica similar a la del Monopoly, los jugadores son prostitutas, chulos navajeros y travestis que deben ganar más dinero que los demás (robando, vendiendo drogas o acostándose con clientes) en un límite de tiempo que debe ser escogido en común por los jugadores al principio.
