The sun is rising on the age of industry; will you rise too? Anno 1800 is an epic city-building strategy board game based on Ubisofts popular PC game of the same name. Players strive to build up their industrial might as they develop an island society at the dawn of the industrial age. Investing in their nautical fleets enables trade and expansion to new territories in the old and new worlds, but players must focus above all on maintaining the health and happiness of the citizens of their home islands. While the population is initially satisfied with food and clothing, in time it will demand valuable luxury goods. Players must plan their development strategies and supply chains carefully while keeping an eye on the distribution of specialized roles within their territories. The objective of the game is to plan for an even distribution of farmers, workers, craftsmen, engineers, and investors. But beware, because the competition never sleeps. Players may steal new achievements out from under each others noses at any time! Whose island will prosper and whose will fall? + By the best-selling game designer Martin Wallace, whose other hit games include: Brass: Birmingham (BGG Rank #3) Brass: Lancashire (BGG Rank #17) Age of Steam (BGG Rank #120) A Few Acres of Snow (BGG Rank #329) Australia (2018 BGG Rank #657)
