Anno 1800
Comes with free mini expansion pack, while stocks last.
Anno 1800 started out life as a computer game by Ubisoft. Here it's received the wood-and-cardboard treatment by respected designer Martin Wallace and Kosmos Games. In Anno 1800, 2-4 players compete in a world of trade, discovery and exploration. Who will keep their population the happiest?
As the title in Anno 1800 suggests, this takes place in the 19th century. Each player begins with their own island player board. Your turn consists of action selection, and there's a wealth of options at your fingertips. You begin the game with nine workers living on your island. You also start with nine Population Cards, which are like 'contracts'. Each one represents the wants and needs of your population. If you can complete them, you earn end-game points, and an immediate reward.
You complete Population Cards by providing the stated resources on the card. You can provide them by sending you workers to produce the goods on your own island, if you have the respective factory tile. Or, if an opponent has that factory, you can spend a trade token to gain that resource. (The other player earns some gold in return, so everyone's happy!) Of course, you can't afford to trade too often, so you'll have to build your own factories. So long as you have enough room on your island to house all those new industries...
You can also 'explore' and extend your own island, or discover the new world. To explore, you'll need ships. So you can build shipyards, and ships, too! As well as trying to complete your own Population Cards, you'll be competing with your opponents for communal end-game goal cards. There's a lot of these that come with the game, so you'll get a modular feel, every time.
The game ends once someone play their final Population Card. Anno 1800 provides so many different paths to take, and no two strategies are alike!
