About the Game

You will take on the role of a capitalist, and by making shrewd acquisitions and calculations, be the first to reach 18 points and claim the unrivaled throne of capital.

Supports 2-5 players, and there is also a single-player vs. AI mode.

Core Gameplay and Mechanics

At the start, the order in which each player plays cards is randomly determined.

Only one person can perform an action at a time.

When the last person finishes their action, it returns to the first person to act again (this loops until the game ends).

In each round, you will choose one of three key actions to perform: Fundraise, Acquire, or Reserve.

1. Fundraise:

Take 3 normal chips of different colors; silver chips can be taken.

Or take 2 normal chips of the same color (you cannot take 2 silver chips in a single round).

Gold chips cannot be taken directly.

2. Acquire:

Pay chip resources to add an asset to your possession.

Each asset adds one color.

Some assets score points, with different assets having different point values.

Silver card assets can specify a color.

Assets are also categorized into 4 types: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Silver Card.

3. Reserve:

Lock an asset card and obtain gold coins.

The asset card you lock does not belong to you, but only you can purchase it.

In normal mode, reserving assets is the only way to obtain gold coins.

In character mode, some characters will have the ability to turn stones into gold.

Prestige Cards

When the colors of the assets you have accumulated meet the requirements of the corresponding prestige card, you can obtain that prestige card.

Prestige cards provide a direct score bonus.

Game End

When any player exceeds 18 points, after their current round ends, the player with the highest score wins.

(Note: It is not the case that the first player to reach 18 points wins; other players may overtake them with their final action.)

Character Mode

The game features multiple characters: Mine Owner, Sophia, Isabella, Marcus, Master Artisan, and Explorer.

Each character has different abilities. For example, one of the Explorer’s abilities is: a 50% chance to receive 1 normal chip as a reward at the end of each round.

Matching Methods

Create a room or join other players’ rooms through the online lobby.

You can also create or join a friend’s room (visible to Steam friends).

If you really can’t find partners to play with, you can try the vs. AI mode.
