Euphoria Board Game: Essential Edition

About The Game

Euphoria Board Game: Essential Edition: a dystopian cityscape awaits your leadership as you make strategic choices to construct markets, enhance allegiances, and expand control in this thematic dice worker-placement game.

This essential edition combines the original Euphoria core game with the expansion and includes some revised rules/components, particularly the board layout.

In Euphoria Board Game, you lead a team of workers (dice) and recruits (cards) to claim ownership of the dystopian world. You will generate commodities, dig tunnels to infiltrate opposing areas, construct markets, collect artifacts, and strengthen allegiances.

You also have a few elite recruits at your disposal: one who has pledged allegiance to you, and the other who has yet to be convinced. You can inspire and use that reticent recruit by reaching certain milestones in the game…or by letting other players unwittingly reach those milestones for you.

Your path to victory is paved with the sweat of your workers, the strength of your allegiances, and the tunnels you dig to infiltrate other territories of the world. You accomplish this by constructing markets that impose harsh restrictions of personal freedoms upon other players, changing the face of the game and opening new paths to victory. You can also focus on gathering artifacts from the old world, objects of leisure that are extremely rare in this utilitarian society. The dystopian elite covet these artifacts - especially matching pairs - and are willing to give you tracts of land in exchange for them.

The game ends when a player has placed 9 of their authority tokens. After all players take one final turn, the player who placed the most authority tokens is the winner.
