Inventions: Evolution of Ideas

Inventions: Evolution of Ideas

Since the dawn of time, humankind has searched for new ideas and kept developing them into newer concepts. Their ingenuity set them apart from all other animal species. Every invention is a true evolutionary step. By using materials and tools, humans surpass all other species: Homo sapiens is a species of technologists. And that was long before any written records existed; writing was only invented much later, in Mesopotamia!

The technology is in your hands in Inventions: Evolution of Ideas

Inventions follows humankind's most remarkable innovations. It is up to you to use technological developments to let your society evolve through the ages.

In Inventions, cards simulate these new concepts. They are the ideas that eventually become inventions. Once they have been invented, they can be shared with the world. Everyone involved in the process spreads the exciting news about this new technological leap! You can even share your inventions with other societies, which increases the effectiveness of your work.

Inventions is a tactical game that revolves around long-term strategy. Each society's progress is measured in Intellectual Property Points (IPP). The player with the most IPP has the strongest society and wins the game.
