Why It's On The List
- A civilization-building game that packs in the game mechanics: deckbuilding, resource management, tableau building, asymmetric factions, multiple game timers, keywords to differentiate similar actions… and each individual civilization has a uniquely structured deck.
Tips & Tricks:
- Know what's in the deck you're playing... they do NOT work the same way and tactics can be very different.
- Don't forget about Innovate (dropping your hand to get a card you want from the market)... sometimes, it's the best thing you can do.
- It will take a few plays, but watching what other players are doing is key to winning.
Extras
- I'm on the fence about buying the 3D-printed bits from MeepleSource - but they look really nice..
- Here's the review I wrote about Imperium Classics/Legends for the Opinionated Gamers website.
- It is a brilliant solo system.
- Horizons adds a LOT of content to the game... as well as a trade module which twists things in some interesting ways. It's also has the best comprehensive rulebook for the game.
- This is the first of two games on my list by designer Nigel Buckle & the third of four games by Dávid Turczi. (Extra credit - Imperium is the first of two games designed by this team on my list!)
