Imperial 2030

Picture this: six world powers fighting for control. The USA, Europe, Russia, China, India and Brazil build up their industry, send out armies and fleets and try to conquer as much territory as they can. But in Imperial 2030 the real power does not lie with those countries. It lies with you, behind the scenes, as an investor with a deep wallet. What makes this game special: the players do not take turns, the six countries do. You set the course by putting money into a country. Whoever invests the most in a nation takes the lead and decides what happens. Because that can change with every new investment, you sometimes steer several countries at once. So do not get too attached to one favourite. It is all about where your money brings in the most. In the end everything comes down to cash, not to who has the biggest army. Expect a long evening full of sharp choices and plenty of thinking. With two to six players and a playing time of around three hours, this is a game for fans who love depth. The best moments happen around the table: puzzling together, outsmarting each other and watching the world map slowly change colour.
