In the ancient kingdom of Crete, amidst the sun-drenched shores and labyrinthine passages of Knossos, the fate of the Minoan civilization awaits. As a member of one of four prominent Minoan clans, your destiny calls you to vie for the prestigious title of Minos, the ultimate leader of your people.

But bear in mind - unlike the tumultuous conquests of other civilizations, the Minoans are known for their pursuit of peace and prosperity. In this compelling journey, the essence of your quest lies not in the clash of swords, but in the art of governance and the cultivation of your clan's unique identity.

As leaders of Minoan clans, players are responsible for the first European civilization. Build cities, monuments and other structures, open new trade routes, expand and defend your land from outsiders, plan your actions with your clan city, research and issue decrees so that your actions are more powerful than those of your opponents! You have only 4 rounds to prove that you are worthy of the legendary title of Minos.

Choose and assign dice to the programming board. Lower dice values ​​allow you to secure more powerful actions, but higher dice values ​​help you climb the tracks and gain their benefits. During the action phase, players take their dice in order from highest to lowest and perform the actions they have planned. Players also build their tableau - each card has an immediate effect and a triggered reward tied to the specific action or dice value that they can use to make the action more powerful. In addition, players gain Victory Points for their civilization progress in the region twice during the game.
