About the game

It is 100 AD and the Celtic nation of Armorica (Brittany) has been conquered by the Roman Empire. Now, the administrators of Armorica try to increase their prestige by attracting wealthy Romans immigrants. However, Roman Patricians have expensive tastes, and it will take a lot of development to make a barbaric province like Armorica appealing.

Armorica is a challenging card-drafting game, in which players must anticipate the likely choices of their opponents in order to win. Each turn, players select cards from face up displays and add them to their personal tableaux. Icons in players' personal tableaux increase the range of cards from which they can select, allow them to retain more cards in their tableaux, and provide different sources of victory points.
