Century: New World
Your task will be to bring more settlers to the place, discover new lands, expand settlements and, of course, trade, which is the basic element of all games from the Century series.
A game of the family genre, with a neutral trade theme
Resources. Resources are divided into four types, of which the least valuable
there is corn, followed by increasingly valuable meat, tobacco and fur. By exchanging resources, and acquiring new ones, the player has the opportunity to
obtaining special cards that give victory points at the end of the game. This game
is a good introduction for novice players – on your turn you have
the ability to make one of two movements – to move workers (meeple) to
one field of the board or gather all the workers back to each other. Each
the field allows you to exchange resources with each other or acquire new ones. Within
complexity of the game added the ability to obtain various bonuses,
additional workers, etc.
In general, the game is very efficient and fast, in two people
the batch will take a little more than half an hour. Subsequent turns pass and rarely happen
to make one of the players "hang" for longer. However, adding
additional bonuses make the game take on a delicate depth, and provides a good
replayability, for such a small position.
Beautifully crafted game about spice trading
