A Review of Eight Minute Empire by Reviews in R'lyeh
On the games review blog Reviews in R'lyeh, they briefly review the, ugh, Eurogame style wargame meant for short "eight-minute" games.
Eight-Minute Empire could be described as wargame. It has armies, their leaders contest for territory, and at the end of the game, the leader who holds the most territory wins the game. It is though not a wargame—certainly not in a traditional sense—but is instead a Eurogame that combines area control and card drafting mechanics with a set collection mechanic. It is a little game with big themes that can be played through in the eight minutes of the title with just two players, but just twenty minutes with the maximum number of five players.Empire Building Filler Thriller on Reviews in R'lyeh
