RIVER OF GOLD: Merchants, samurai clans, and epicness!

Post by DrClick »

Image

From the Spine of the World Mountains to the bustling fishing villages of Earthquake Fish Bay flows a river where fortunes can be made and lowly traders can brush shoulders with Rokugan's elite. Will your clan become the dominant force along this River of Gold?
 
In River of Gold, players take on the role of river merchants allied with legendary samurai clans, each vying to exploit the river to earn wealth, glory, and wisdom. Will you invest in developing ports, markets, shrines, and more along the banks of the busy river? Or will you rely upon sailing the river of gold, growing your wealth and influence through delivery contracts, visiting the nobility, and garnering a bit of divine favor during tough times?
 
The gameplay is fast and clever, with minimal downtime and a playtime of just one hour. Try it by clicking the link below:

Don't forget that it will be the very first eurogame from the Legend of the Five Rings series, to be released this 2nd ofAugust 2024.
 
We must thank the Office Dog team, with the game designer Keith Piggott for their authorization to host this game onto Board Game Arena. Let's also salute the awesome adaptation work done by Jonathan2004, who made it playable from all devices. And let's not forget that it is not a small game! ;)
 
That's it for your Wednesday Release Time or WRT (as i like to say).
Have a fantastic weekend, and as always,
Take care and play fair!

There is a tutorial button that leads to read rules. Should it be a tutorial?
