Board Game Geek Rating: 5.55. Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 7.88. This game is for 2 to 4 players and was published in 2022. It's a Kickstarter - exclusive solo expansion, the Gardens of Ceres, for the Foundations of Rome board game by Arcane Wonders. It enables solo play but requires the separately - sold Foundations of Rome core game. Note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign aren't included unless stated otherwise.
In the city - building board game Foundations of Rome, you step into the shoes of an architect vying to own land and construct magnificent buildings. Build domūs, insulae, fountains, foundries, and more to boost your renown and bring glory to yourself and the empire. The base game comes with 96 exquisitely detailed miniatures, truly showcasing the glory of Rome on your table.
Foundations of Rome is the latest and grandest game in the Dice Tower Essentials line, designed by the well - known designer Emerson Matsuuchi.
On your turn, you can choose to buy a new lot, build a new building in the shared city of Rome, or collect income. At the end of each round, players earn Glory Points based on the population and commerce they've brought to the city. Civic buildings also score glory, taking into account not only your own buildings but also those of your opponents.
With a quick setup and easy - to - learn rules, you'll be on your way to achieving glory in Rome in no time.

Using this game is a breeze. First, make sure you have the Foundations of Rome core game because this Gardens of Ceres solo expansion requires it to play. Once you've got everything ready, set up the game according to the rules in the core game, and then add the expansion components for solo play.
On your turn, you can either buy a new lot, build a building in the shared city of Rome, or collect income. Keep an eye on earning Glory Points at the end of each round by looking at the population and commerce you've brought to the city and the performance of civic buildings.
When it comes to storage, keep the game in a dry and cool place to prevent the miniatures from getting damaged. If you notice any dirt on the components, you can gently wipe them with a soft cloth. Remember, paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign aren't included unless it's specifically stated, so don't be surprised if they're missing. Enjoy playing and bringing glory to Rome!
