What is Age of Monarchs

Age of Monarchs is a multiplayer card-driven grand strategy game simulating the three centuries of the Modern Age, from Columbus' discovery of America in 1492 to the fall of the Bastille in 1789. Players represent the highest rungs of European monarchy, assuming the leadership of a major European Power, and struggling to achieve global supremacy over the world in the Age of Absolutism. Being an absolute monarch, each player must manage every kind of question: economic, political, diplomacy, trade, world wide exploration, colonization, religion and warfare.

Age of Monarchs is designed to offer an accurate and detailed historical context, supported by more than 160 strategy cards that simulate the most outstanding historical events and force players to face constantly the toughest challenges that occurred during the three centuries covered by the game timeline.

The game offers a wide set of short scenarios and a Grand Campaign 1492-1789, spanning 20 turns, that put the most powerful European nations into a never-ending struggle for world domination.
