Hamburgum
A crunchy rondel-driven economic game of Hamburg merchants producing goods to fund prestigious church donations.
Who it's for
Fans of interlocking economic engines and rondel systems who enjoy converting goods into prestige with sharp timing.
Not for you if…
You want light, fast or highly interactive play. At higher complexity and 75 minutes it rewards patient optimizers, and it is out of print.
Vibe's take
A tight economic engine where the rondel forces constant trade-offs between advancing far and grabbing the action you need to fuel your prestige.

About this game
In 17th-century Hamburg you guide a merchant family toward wealth and, above all, prestige. Produce beer, sugar and cloth, ship them overseas, and pour the proceeds into grand church donations, because in the end only prestige counts. A rondel drives your actions in this crunchy economic game.
