Barely a game. Roll and move, land on a card space and a random thing happens. Beautiful production though.

I bought this board game after trialing it during ConQuest 2023 with my friends and it was absolutely fun! The game itself is great but it's even better playing with equally pumped up and passionate players, despite me being an introvert their excitement was intoxicating to say the least! I've just been able to play my first game with the board recently and it is just as fun!

Quality The quality of the game board and pieces itself are really good! The board is wide and the drawings of each city are really well drawn. The art style of the game matches well with the feel of a map, really adds to the feeling of planning a conquest. The pieces themselves are really well made and the die in particular is my favorite! It's a blue and purple resin die that looks absolutely gorgeous!

Gameplay The gameplay is simple enough for anyone to easily pick up but not too easy to make it boring. The thrill and excitement you get from drawing cards and claiming/stealinb cities makes the game fun. A good mix of both strategy and luck is needed to win making the game well balanced!
