Description

In Amerigo, you'll join Amerigo Vespucci on his journey to discover new land, exploring the islands of South America, securing trading routes, and building settlements. The game is played with 2 to 4 players and takes about 90 minutes to complete. With a modular board composed of 9 to 16 tiles, depending on the number of players, each game is unique and challenging. As you sail through the landscape, you'll need to strategically plan your actions, using a specialized cube tower to determine what actions are available to you. With seven colors of action cubes, each matching a particular type of action, you'll need to think tactically to take advantage of the actions currently available, while also planning for the long-term. With the ability to earn victory points by building settlements and acquiring progress tokens, you'll need to balance your resources and investments to come out on top.
