Tempus

Fast-paced civilisation-building game designed by Martin Wallace

A relatively fast-paced civilisation game using a modular board with an array of landscapes on each land tile to ensure a different game every session. Each turn advances players’ technological progress beginning with fire and ending in the modern age.

The game confronts players with difficult choices throughout and features an unusual mechanic whereby players catch up with the leader’s advances at the end of every turn, and move forward to take advantage of any new technologies that are discovered, thus rewarding forward planning.

Tempus features a diceless battle system using cards which, if used for war, cannot be used for the other benefits they may confer.
