The Voyage of Argo

Angol leírás

The Voyage of Argo is a 2-4 player strategy ship-building game designed by Michael Shea.

Set sail with your friends in an epic conquest for glory. Encounter sea monsters, strange items, and dire circumstances while accumulating wealth used to upgrade your ship.

In The Voyage of Argo, each player captains their own Greek trireme, choosing which aspects of your ship to advance along the way. Build sails for speed and evasion, gather warriors to fight for your cause, and collect riches to improve your crew’s morale in order to perform powerful feats. These attributes, along with a little luck, aid you through turn based gameplay where you play use feats and roll dice in an attempt to overcome encounters and collect treasure cards. Each phase that the players don’t overcome the encounters, they will retaliate the players, potentially wrecking havoc to a player’s hand of cards or the ship they captain.

Upon reaching heroic milestones, you will be able to achieve glory (victory points) and make a name for yourself. The first player to gain seven glory outshines their fellow captains and is declared the winner.
