Furnace is an elegant euro-style engine-building game in which players take on the roles of 19th-century capitalists who build up their industrial companies and try to earn as much money as possible by buying companies, extracting resources and processing them in the best possible combinations.
The game is played over 4 rounds. Each round has 2 phases: auction and production.
AUCTION PHASE
Each player has 4 discs with values 1-4 to bid on the cards in the shared row. Players take turns placing 1 of their discs on the cards until they have no discs left.
Placement rules
1. No discs of the same value on one card
2. No discs of the same colour on one card
The cards are then resolved one by one from left to right. The highest bid wins the card. All other bids are compensated: the value of the disc multiplies the compensation.
PRODUCTION PHASE
Now players use their own cards in any order they like. They can gain resources, process them into other resources or money, and upgrade their cards for extra effects.
END OF THE GAME
When the 4th round is over, the player with the most money tokens wins.
