Description

Ostia is a strategy game where 1 to 4 players take on the role of fleet leaders, exploring the ocean, trading, and developing their port. The game features a unique Mancala system, which allows players to strengthen their personal board and aim for the highest honor. By utilizing this system, players can build new ships, upgrade their existing ones, or construct buildings in the harbor, all while navigating the challenges of the sea. As players progress through the game, they'll need to make strategic decisions about which resources to produce and how to allocate their ships. With a playtime of 100 to 120 minutes, Ostia offers a engaging and immersive experience that's perfect for fans of city building and nautical themes. Designed by Totsuca Chuo and published in 2022, Ostia is a great choice for those looking for a fun and challenging game with a unique blend of mechanics.
