Bid for Florence's finest attractions and host Renaissance prestige
Vibe's take
Elegant, competitive, tight, cerebral
Who it's for
Euro veterans who love auction games and tight optimization. Best at 3-5 players where bidding wars create real tension.
Not for you if…
Not for players who dislike auction mechanics or want thematic immersion over abstract optimization.
Classic auction and optimization euro set in Renaissance Florence. Bid on attractions — buildings, parks, jesters — to lure the most prestigious guests to your estate. Every round is a tense balance between spending wisely and outbidding opponents.
