What is Antiquity

From the Manufacturer:

"These fields no longer yield grain the way they used to," complains the farmer. "We should settle new lands before our food runs out. Why don't we start farming olives, like our neighbors?"

The cart-driver nods: "Ever since them city folks started worshiping San Giorgio I have to travel further and further to new building sites. I'm on my way now to the new inn they built. I'll change horses there and deliver this load," he gestures towards the pile of wood in the cart with his head "to the sea beyond. Gonna start some fisheries there. It is said we'll conquer those olive-farmers before long. But their land is even more polluted than ours."

The farmer nods his head in reply. As the cart starts moving again, he returns to the field to harvest the last bushels of grain, growing between the stumps of what used to be a lush forest -- three turns ago.

David_Trovador8.8/10

Es un juego de planificar y gestionar mucho, duro, pero de reglas muy sencillas a la vieja usanza para jugones, dura entre 2-4 horas, y es mejor para 2-3 jugadores. Le llaman "catan advanced" pero tiene muy poco que ver. Tiene un detalle en la gestión con el tema puzzle de los edificios, a lo principes de florencia. Como defencto, a parte de las mil piezas pequeñitas que puede abrumar, es que es muy solitario, con prácticamente ninguna interacción entre jugadores
