Furnace
Bid on factories, chain production, and outproduce everyone
Who it's for
Players who want a satisfying engine-building arc compressed into 30-45 minutes. The auction mechanism rewards smart losing as much as winning.
Not for you if…
Skip if you want deep, long-term strategic planning — this is deliberately compact. Limited player interaction beyond the auction.
Vibe's take
Compact, clever, engine-driven, snappy

About this game
Compact engine-building game set during the industrial revolution. Bid on factory cards in a clever auction where losing bids grant production bonuses. Then chain your factories together to convert resources into points across just four tight rounds.
