FUTURE MUSIC
"Efforts to produce a game based
on the music business before have been a bit twee and tacky.
Chart Moves goes straight for the jugular producing a hard-hitting
believable and fun game. A general appeal is certain once the
word spreads. Very classy, with loads of superbly designed cards
(with great logos), slick presentation and very posh looking
counters (none of your cheapo plastic looking Trivial Pursuit
"cheeses" here). A case of art imitating life - a
lot of money has been spent on it, no wonder it looks classy
- the results have been worth it"
