About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey folks! Ready to build a civilization from scratch and conquer the world? In CIV: Carta Impera Victoria, you take on the role of a leader aiming to bring your people to the top. The goal is to be the first to dominate one of the six fields of competition: Army, Religion, Economics, Science, Culture, or Utopia. Each field has its own secrets and special powers that you unlock as you advance.

The game is divided into three ages, simulating the evolution of civilization. As the ages progress, you need to be sharp: if a field isn't going well, it's time to change your strategy! Cards are the heart of the game, and you'll need to manage your hand like a pro to use the right abilities at the right time. And don't be fooled, this game has a touch of diplomacy and backstabbing: forming alliances can be crucial, but be careful not to become the main target!

The objective is simple: reach supremacy first. But if no one succeeds, the game ends when the cards run out, and then there's a general scoring to see who came out on top. CIV offers modes for 1v1, 2v2, and even 3-4 players, ensuring fun for any group. It's a fast-paced game with mechanics like drafting, deck building, and set collection, perfect for those who enjoy strategic competition with twists and turns.

With rules adaptable for different player counts and a power system that rewards planning and adaptation, CIV: Carta Impera Victoria is a great choice for anyone who likes card games with a civilization theme and a bit of direct interaction. Let's go conquer the world!
