The Flow of History

Players guide a civilization from antiquity through later ages, expanding culture, economy, technology and military power. New developments enter play via a unique bidding and price-setting market where players buy cards; money placed into the supply can later be taken by opponents, creating a dynamic economic ebb and flow that affects bidding strategy and simulates inflation. Military conflict with other players occurs alongside cultural and technological advancement, and decisions balance investment in growth, defense, and market manipulation to score the most progress by the end of the game.
