Century: A New World – Explore the Frontier 🌎🛶

The satisfying conclusion to the Century series. Century: A New World by Emerson Matsuuchi, illustrated by Chris Quilliams and published by Plan B Games, is a worker placement game for 2–4 players aged 8 and up, in about 30–45 minutes.

Travel the New World to explore the frontier wilderness, collect various goods and trade with the inhabitants. Each turn you place your wooden workers on the double-sided location boards to gather goods, trade, explore and earn points – but other players are after the same spaces, so timing matters. Knowing when to rest and take your workers back is part of the challenge. Upgrade your goods, fulfil point cards and collect bonus tiles to come out ahead at the end. Fans of the series will be happy to discover that Century: A New World mixes with the previous Century titles, giving a combination of four unique rulesets.
