Overview

Cuba is an economic board game where players compete to develop the island and gain the favor of the government. Each round consists of several phases that are executed in a variable order determined by player voting. You'll manage your hand of cards, representing influential figures, and use them to perform actions, influencing the development of Cuba.

Strategic bidding and shrewd resource management are key to success. You'll participate in auctions for key buildings and resources, impacting your production and potential scoring opportunities. The constantly shifting political landscape, represented by the voting phase, ensures that no two games are ever the same, demanding adaptability and careful planning from all players.
