Product Description
Theme : In 64 A.D., a great fire originating from the slums of Rome quickly spreads to destroy much of the city, including the imperial palace. Upon hearing news of the fire, Emperor Nero Caesar races back to Rome from his private estate in Antium and sets up shelters for the displaced population.
Reporting directly to Nero, you are responsible for rebuilding the structures lost in the fire and restoring Glory to Rome.
Gameplay : Glory to Rome is a card-based city building and resource management game with a novel mechanic. Each card may act as a building, a patron, a raw material, or a valuable resource, frequently forcing players into difficult decisions regarding how each card should be used. In addition, much of the game is played from the discard pool, giving players some control over what cards are accessible to opponents.
Scoring is a combination of completing buildings and storing resources, with end-of-game bonuses for storing a diverse assortment. Game length is player-controlled, and is triggered in a few different ways.
The lighthearted artwork and slim rulebook belie the strong strategic and tactical elements of Glory to Rome

All in all, Glory to Rome is an enjoyable and surprisingly strategic card game. If you enjoy heavily strategic card games such as Race for the Galaxy, you might enjoy Glory to Rome and its interesting take on a classic role-selection mechanic. Review by Colin F. (Posted on 10/26/11)
