Ostia,
first century A.D.: Merchants obtain and distribute the resources
that the Roman Senate needs to complete civic projects. Those
that support the Senate over the next five years will gain special
favor in the eyes ofthe senators. Players receive resources from
arriving ships, and after buying and selling with other players,
try to assemble the resources the Senate is most eager to receive.
However, the needs of the Senate change from year to year.
In OSTIA, players must judge when is the best time to provide
goods to the Senate. But, players must also sell goods in order
to get the income necessary to obtain more resources. And, the
Senate watches to make sure that no one uses more resource types
than they should..
Will you be clever enough to become the favorite of the Senate?
