Empire The Board Game - Full Playthrough
Today we’re taking to the seas in Empire: A Strategic Board Game from AOM Games a 2-5 player competitive game.
Starting in Europe, we’ll explore North America, South America, Africa, Asia and the Indo-Pacific, discovering hidden settlements, establishing ports and building trade networks across the world.
Resources feed into five competing markets - Precious Goods, Foodstuffs, Stimulants, Exotics and Spices - and gaining enough different resources in a market allows you to claim its Monopoly.
But control is never guaranteed. Monopolies can change hands, Admirals can block key locations and fight for control, Strongholds can secure valuable settlements, and Pirates may be waiting behind the next unexplored tile.
In this full two-player playthrough, we both compete to build the strongest empire and control the markets before the Empire Tracker reaches its end.
If you enjoy strategic board game playthroughs, exploration, trading and a bit of direct player conflict, this one should be right up your street.
