Opera

Prepare for an immersion into the sublime world of opera! In "Opera", you're not just a spectator, but a tycoon shaping the European musical landscape between the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods. Starting from 1607, with the premiere of "La Favola d'Orfeo", the game transports you to iconic cities like Venice, Vienna, Paris, and London, where you'll build grand opera houses and bring to life the works of masters such as Händel, Mozart, Beethoven, and Verdi. Success demands more than just a passion for music; it requires a sharp budget and impeccable business strategy. Each round, you decide how much to invest, influencing the order of actions and the activation of crucial characters like the Maestro, who elevates performances, and the Critico, who can bless or curse a composer. Keep an eye on the Palazzo for quick profits, but remember that true glory comes from the music and building your empire. Manage your Ducats and capacity wisely, as wealth is merely a means to a greater end. Plan your moves in advance, use Intermezzos to gain an edge at key moments, and don't underestimate the progressively scoring rounds. With 9 rounds divided into 3 episodes, the player with the most victory points at the end will be crowned the grand maestro of this musical stage. "Opera" is a game for those who appreciate economic strategy with an artistic and historical flair.
