About this game

Develop your ancient Greek city-state through seven action tracks representing philosophy, legislation, culture, trade, military, politics, and development. Khora uses simultaneous action selection with dice determining the power of your choices, but you always have options to mitigate bad rolls. The race to advance on scoring tracks creates constant tension about where to invest, and each city has unique abilities that encourage different strategic paths. A mid-weight civilization game that respects your time.
