Kutna Hora

Embark on a captivating journey through the 14th century as you step into the shoes of ambitious guild leaders in Kutná Hora: The City of Silver. This historical city-building Eurogame invites 2-4 players to partake in the rapid economic growth and expansion of the famed City of Silver, from the initial discovery of silver near the Cistercian monastery to the rise of Kutná Hora as a central European powerhouse.

As guild leaders, your decisions shape the destiny of this historic city. The game's real-life supply and demand experience make every action a pivotal move in its dynamic economic systems. In each round, players strategically select actions from double-sided cards, unfolding plans that encompass mining, purchasing plots of land, obtaining permits, constructing buildings for affiliated guilds, reaping profits from production, and contributing to the construction of Saint Barbara's Cathedral.
