From BoardGameGeek
In Ada's Dream, work with Ada Lovelace to help build the first computer, fulfilling her dream in this alternate history Euro Game. Over the course of the game (18 turns), players take dice from the Workshop Rondel, Give Lectures in Prestigious Institutions, Travel the UK, and Complete Assignments from Ada to gather Prestige Points. Players add Dice, Gears, and Programs to their blueprint Board in a race to build the first Analytical Engine, using dice rondel and manipulation mechanics and literal "engine building". When any engine is completed, the end of the game is triggered and Prestige points are counted. The player with the most prestige, wins. -description from the publisher
