Description
Antiquity challenges players to build a thriving city in a medieval setting, but with a crucial twist: growth comes at a significant environmental cost. As you expand, you'll need to carefully manage pollution and resource depletion to avoid devastating consequences for your civilization.
The modular board ensures a different game experience each time, forcing players to adapt their strategies. Clever tile placement and strategic trading are key to acquiring the resources necessary for construction and expansion, while also mitigating the negative impacts of your city's growth. Expect tough choices and long-term planning in this challenging economic game.
