Description

In Sylla, 3 to 4 players take on the role of Roman Consuls, vying to become the most influential leader in ancient Rome. This game, designed by Dominique Ehrhard, combines auction, card drafting, and voting mechanics to create a unique and engaging experience. With a playtime of 60 to 90 minutes, players will navigate the complexities of Roman politics over the course of five years, each divided into seven phases. As players take their actions, they must work together to some extent, as no single Consul can control all aspects of Roman life. However, they must also prepare for challenges like epidemics, persecution, and decadence, which can impact their progress. With its normal complexity level, Sylla is accessible to fans of board games, and its lack of necessary in-game text makes it a great option for players of all languages.
