Mint Italy is a mid-to-heavy economic game that involves area control, resource management, and market manipulation. Players compete to build settlements, trade goods, and complete contracts on a small island off of the coast of Italy.
Players must increase their wealth, upgrade their abilities, trade or produce goods, complete contracts, and compete for land in this engine-building strategy game.
There are 4 steps (phases) in a round
During the player action phase, players take turns performing 1 of several player actions. Once all players have passed, the round is over and there is an end of round scoring condition. After 4 rounds, the game is over. The player with the most victory points wins!
Mint Italy is different every time you play because each game has a variable setup. The terrian is randomized, each player has different starting perks, and each round has different scoring conditions which differ from game to game. All of this is to provide as much replayability as possible.
I recommend that you check out the two videos below. The first video is an overview and rule summary of the game. The second video is a solo playthrough of the game.
This game has an easy to run bot that is used when playing by yourself. There are 4 different bot personas to play against. Each persona has a special action that differs from the rest. Playing against the bot feels like playing against a player instead of a "beat-your-high-score" type of game.
All of the components will fit into a larged size mint tin. There is a lot to pack into the tin. The game has:
