Play How to play

A game in progress: cities, roads, cloisters and players’ figures

Three ways to play

  1. Against bots

    Three levels: Novice, Knight and Strategist. Bots take their own turns, and the game is saved after every move, so you can finish it later.

  2. With friends, via a link

    Create a room and send the link. Your friends open it in a browser, type a name and take a seat. Empty seats can go to bots.

  3. On one screen

    Two to five players take turns on one computer or tablet, or up to six with the All or Nothing expansion.

What’s in the game

  • Tiles with goods, a cathedral and an inn, the builder, the pig, the double vassal and the shadow

    Two expansions and the Shadow variant

    Fairs & Crafts brings goods, a builder and a pig. All or Nothing brings inns, cathedrals and a double vassal. Shadow gives everyone a second figure. Pick any of them before the game starts, or play without.

  • Players at the table talking in voice chat

    Voice and video at the table

    Chat out loud as if you were sitting at one table. Voice and video only start when you press the button in the room, and your browser asks for microphone and camera access first. If you’d rather play quietly, just leave it off.

  • Room chat with messages and quick reactions

    Chat and reactions

    Text chat in every room, plus one-tap reactions like 👍 and 🎉.

  • The map through another player’s eyes, with a frame showing their screen

    Spectators

    Friends can watch through a separate link: the whole map, or through the eyes of one player, following wherever they look.

  • Final scores of a finished game

    Game archive

    A finished game keeps its own link with the final map and scores, handy for anyone who missed the ending.

  • A game on a phone and the game icon on the home screen

    On your phone

    Full screen, an icon on your home screen like an app, and the screen stays on while the game is going.

Where the project stands

Free, no ads. A non-commercial fan project.

The game is in beta, so the main job right now is finding bugs and hearing what players think.

The game, this site and the rules are in English and Russian.
