(GAME SUMMARY)
|
|
|
| Drake says: "In Gloria Mundi, players are Roman statesman struggling to survive in an era of cultural decline and political chaos. Each turn, players purchase cards that produce resources and give them special effects, as well as allow them to move further out from the doomed Eternal City. Then the Visigoth moves toward Rome, destroying cards... unless players to bribe him with precious resources. When the Visigoth reaches Rome, or a player reaches the outskirts of the empire, the game is over and the player who has fled the furthest from Rome wins."

(TIPS/COMMENTS)
|
|
|
| John says: "Gloria Mundi has lots of opportunity for "screw your neighbor" so if you don’t like malicious games, you may not like this one. It's a game of very little chance and can be quite a close race to the end."

The Glory of Rome is fading. You're a Roman statesman struggling to survive in this era of cultural decline and political chaos. While foreign invaders and domestic incompetents devour the last resources of the Empire, you'll try to build your career out of the rubble.

In the end, the points you've scored may be all you have left.
