How it plays

Be the first to reach 10 victory points by building settlements and cities, creating roads, and earning bonuses. On your turn, roll for resources, trade, and build; after each turn, every player gets a chance to build. The game ends when a player reaches 10 points on their own turn.

Main mechanics explained

  • Dice rolling: Dice create swing and force you to adapt.
  • Hand management: Timing which card to spend is the core puzzle.
  • Tile laying: You build a shared or personal board tile by tile.
  • Trading & negotiation: Deals between players move the game forward.
