An Age Contrived: Folklore & Pilgrimage

Overview

An Age Contrived is a captivating fantasy euro game centered around engine building and resource programming. In this game, you play as a god within the Eldranic pantheon, wielding power only as potent as the belief of the mortals in this tumultuous world. Your ultimate objective is to cement your status as the pantheon’s supreme deity by securing mortal belief and guiding the realm from darkness into the light of civilization. Each player receives a character board and a transmutation device to channel their divine energy into the mortal realm. This energy is crucial for constructing monuments, claiming new territories, and achieving lasting accomplishments. Players must manage their energy wisely, binding it for end-game scoring while unlocking new reserves to stay competitive. The game concludes when the final monument is built, and the player with the highest points is declared the victor. Gameplay revolves around two types of turns, without the constraints of rounds or phases. Players either charge their transmutation devices and program actions openly or use the accumulated energy to execute pre-programmed actions. With all information transparent and luck limited to the initial tile shuffle, every decision players make shapes the course of the game. The game boasts unlockable unique player powers, a dynamic board that changes with each playthrough, and five distinct ways to build your engine. Strategic planning is essential, yet adaptability is key to overcoming the challenges and emerging victorious. Immerse yourself in An Age Contrived, where every choice you make as a god resonates through the mortal realm, forging a path from darkness to a thriving civilization.
