About this game

Navigate your merchant ship through the Spice Islands, trading goods at outposts as you build a network of trading posts across the archipelago. Century: Eastern Wonders translates the spice-conversion engine of the first Century into a pick-up-and-deliver board game. Placing trading posts gets cheaper the more you specialize, and fulfilling contracts at port rewards efficient route planning. Can be combined with Spice Road for a hybrid experience.
