Spyrium

Spyrium is set in an alternate world, an England set in a steampunk-based
universe. Players build factories, needing workers to manage the production of a
commodity previously unknown to us called “Spyrium”. Producing Spyrium in one
factory, then processing it in the next results in victory points (VPs) for that
particular player. Alternatively, Spyrium can be purchased, but the material is
rare and expensive, and players are constantly scraping for money.Only those who
from the beginning of the game manage to increase their regular income or their
base of permanently employed workers (who can be used again and again to raise
money) will be flexible enough to get their hands on the important end-of-game
buildings to generate many VPs.The circular nature of the game is flexible as
each player can decide for himself when to move out of the placement phase and
into the activation phase. With the two tracks in the game, those involved with
delivery during the worker phase can then be used to raise money, to purchase an
adjacent card, or to work on their own in an idle factory. All of these things
are important, but in the end only the player who has dealt best with the lack
of money, workers and Spyrium will win.
