Description
Rise of Empires is an epic game where 2 to 5 players build their own civilization from ancient times to the present. You'll start small and powerless, but through clever play, you can gain wealth and progress in areas like war, economics, science, and diplomacy. The game is divided into three eras, each with two turns, and your goal is to score the most victory points by building cities, controlling areas, developing technology, and trading goods. With a playtime of 150 minutes, Rise of Empires is a relatively quick game compared to other civilization games. The game requires tough decision-making and strategic planning, as choices made early on can have long-term benefits. You'll need to balance resources, war, and technology to forge an empire that will rise above all others. Designed by Martin Wallace, Rise of Empires offers a unique and suspenseful gaming experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
