A Kiel Canal-era trading game where one card can mean three different moves.
Who it's for
Fans of efficient card-driven economic games who like historical settings without heavy rules overhead.
Not for you if…
You prefer games with dedicated resource tracks and clear specialization paths rather than flexible multi-use cards.
Vibe's take
Efficient and puzzly - a single card per turn keeps decisions sharp without dragging turns out.
Kilia sends you to early Kiel to help dig a canal from the Baltic to the North Sea, and to quietly out-earn everyone else doing it. Every card you play can build ships, fulfill contracts, or sway the city council.
