Description

In the world of Tharos, four influential steam guilds are vying for control of a newly opened region, each seeking to exploit its natural resources and gain influence. As a player, you'll take on the role of a steam guild leader, exploring the region, gathering crystal and ore samples, and building new mines to increase your guild's power. With a unique blend of deck, bag, and pool building mechanics, you'll use dice to represent actions and their strengths, rolling them to determine your moves and activating player cards to achieve your goals. As you navigate the 4x4 grid of region cards, you'll need to defend yourself against the Circumdate Caelo Trust, a rival faction that won't hesitate to use military force to get what it wants. With four rounds of play, each consisting of four turns, you'll have to strategically use your dice and cards to outmaneuver your opponents and earn the most medals and victory points. Will you emerge victorious and take the lead as the most influential steam guild in Tharos?
