About the game

What you do in a play session

Magna Roma: Deluxe Obelisk Monument is a Kickstarter-exclusive expansion that adds a new strategic layer to the base game. It includes an obelisk miniature (for the Deluxe edition) and a corresponding monument tile (for the standard edition). This monument costs 5 coins and requires 4 meeples to occupy it for end-game scoring: 4, 8, or 12 victory points, depending on the symbols revealed beneath the obelisk. It's a tasty addition for those wanting more depth and tactical options in Magna Roma, especially for fans of city-building and ancient civilizations. The light weight (2/5 on BGG) makes it accessible even for casual players, but still offers interesting decisions.
