A 2-5 player game about developing civilization and achieving objectives. Players control a population at its infancy, growing and managing their population to achieve enough objectives to win the game. Each action a player takes will affect how that player’s population accumulates culture. Culture is a powerful tool that can give your population a competitive edge. Your population can take on aspects of Nomads, Seafarers, Merchants, and more, each enhancing your population through simple card play. Obtain enough culture cards and your population transforms mightily. Players manage population tokens, gold, trade routes, and culture cards to achieve a set of public and private objectives that change with each game. With a modular board that players build at the start of each game, a variety of objectives, and 9 different cultures, Cultures of Man delivers an epic experience for a family evening. —description from the designer
