How to play the dream house draft

The dream house draft works for any group because everyone already has an opinion about houses. Five features make one home, and the final question is easy to vote on: which house would you move into?

Location is the quiet power play. An ocean view or a private island location costs little early on, yet it changes how every other feature reads: a pizza oven on a clifftop beats a pizza oven anywhere else.

The last ten options are deal-breakers, from squeaky stairs to a single bathroom for everyone. They are worth a dollar of defence each, because the player with money left at the end decides who lives with them.

The full rules, including what happens when a player runs out of money, are in how to play the 20 dollar draft.

Dream House: bidding tips

Buy the location early

Views and locations rarely start bidding wars, but every later feature looks better in the right place.

Give the house a personality

A music studio, a recording booth and a dance floor make a party house. Five random luxuries make a hotel lobby.

Defend against the deal-breakers

A haunted attic or windows that do not open can sink a great house in the vote. Keep a dollar to stop them landing on you.

FAQ

What are the best dream house features to bid on?

The fiercest bidding is usually over the indoor swimming pool, a home cinema, a rooftop hot tub and a private beach. Cheap wins like a hidden door behind a bookcase often decide the vote.

How do you judge a dream house draft?

Ask everyone who did not play which house they would move into. Players argue for their own house first, which is half the fun.
