Number of Players: 2-4 Playing Time: 45-60 Minutes Recommended Ages: 13+ You’ve built empires at the game table, but can you save one? From famed designer John D Clair, Empire’s End is a reverse bidding game where you lead an empire in decline through an onslaught of disasters. Bid scarce resources to keep your empire safe from barbarians, famine and flood. Or learn from adversity, sacrificing parts of your empire to gain powerful innovations. There are multiple paths to victory, but only the most determined ruler will lead their empire into a new golden age.
