Rival Portuguese trading companies compete to build the most profitable spice empire through plantations, ships, and colonial expansion.

Gameplay

To score the most points, you auction off and bid on tiles, then spend actions advancing tech tracks and producing spices, ships, colonists, and money on your personal board. The tension is valuing lots correctly while racing opponents to key upgrades without starving your engine.
