The Imperium series continues in this asymmetric card-based civilisation building game for 1–4 players, charting the rise and fall of fourteen of the greatest civilisations from history. Formidable adversaries are arrayed against you. Your people stand ready. History beckons. In your hands lies the destiny of one of the most storied peoples of history. Under constant threat of attack, you must conquer new lands, oversee dramatic scientific and cultural advances, and lead your people into the era of empire. Expand too rapidly and unrest will bring your civilisation to its knees; build up too slowly, however, and you might find yourself a mere footnote of history. As one of fourteen radically asymmetric civilisations, you will compete to become the most dominant empire the world has ever seen. Imperium: Horizons is a standalone game that contains an astonishing fourteen distinctive civilisations, each of which makes for a unique and challenging opponent, even in a solo game. Fully compatible with Imperium: Classics and Imperium: Legends for those wanting to expand their pool of civilisations even further, Imperium: Horizons also incorporates a new trade module that allows players to recreate all the intrigue, wealth generation, and dynamic politics of a thriving economy. Players: 1–4 Ages: 14+ Playing Time: 40 mins per player Contents: 550 cards, 150+ tokens
