Century Spice Road

Description

Century: Spice Road is a game of cubes and beautiful cards, metal coins and plastic bowls. It’s an engine builder but in an accessible package. All these elements combined have led to whispered suggestions that Century might be a Splendor killer!

In Century: Spice Road, players are caravan leaders who travel the famed silk road to deliver spices to the far reaches of the continent for fame and glory. Each turn, players perform one of four actions:

• Establish a trade route (by taking a market card)
• Make a trade or harvest spices (by playing a card from hand)
• Fulfill a demand (by meeting a victory point card’s requirements and claiming it)
• Rest (by taking back into your hand all of the cards you’ve played)

The last round is triggered once a player has claimed their fifth victory point card, then whoever has the most victory points wins.
