Build the greatest Roman cities and bring glory to Rome in this tile-placement, city builder board game for 1-4 players!

In Magna Roma, the objective is to make the most points at the end of the game by building your city efficiently! To do so, players take turns to place city tiles in their city. A newly placed tile must be connected to at least one of the previously placed tiles. When a player places a tile, the connection with the adjacent tiles will result in producing one or more resources for the player. For example, connecting two half-circles found on the tiles produces a coin, a rectangle and triangle produce population, a rectangle and half-circle produce a legion etc. What's more, if the connected shapes are of the same color, the game rewards the player with double the resources.

In Nutty Squirrels of the Oakwood Forest, you build the board using a series of leaf cards spreading out into 6 branches from the centre of the tree. Each turn, players have 3 actions to utilize across whichever mix they wish; move onto a leaves card, flip a leaves card to discover power-ups or acorns, or bury acorns for the winter.

Players can carry up to 3 power cards at a time which can give them extra actions, allow them to carry more acorns, steal acorns from other players, swing over broken branches, or unleash an owl to take out their opponents.

The players will free themselves from the Tomb of Maeshowe once they've removed enough rubble blocking their escape. By playing a set of four "Excavation" cards to the row, the players are able to remove rubble. The timing of when to start a set of "Excavation" cards will be critical since a row of less than four will result in those cards being lost decreasing player chance for survival.

If the player ever finds themselves having 0 health or run out of cards in their draw deck, they have lost and their dead bodies will be found in the Tomb of Maeshowe by Archeologists hundreds of years later.
