Asmodée The Golden River

Challenges and riches await on the banks of the legendary river of Rokugan. Build your trading empire on the Golden River as you attempt to gain influence in the courts of Rokugan, a kingdom where divine favor can alter your destiny. Players take on the role of river merchants allied with legendary samurai clans, each vying to exploit the river for wealth, glory, and wisdom. Will you invest in developing ports, markets, shrines, and more along the busy riverbanks? Or will you rely on navigating the Golden River, growing your wealth and influence through consignment contracts, visiting nobility, and garnering a little divine favor in times of trouble?

Each turn, your die roll will present you with three unique opportunities, but you can only choose one: grow your trading empire by building along the riverbanks, sail your boats to load them with goods and money, or strike a valuable deal with an important customer. If the result of the die does not fit your plan, you can leverage divine favor to manipulate fate!

With the included free mini-expansion, Patrons of the Clans, you can also recruit a legendary patron with powerful new abilities that will give you alternative strategies and methods of victory. The game features a gorgeous board with embossed metallic gold elements, illustrated by master fantasy cartographer Francesca Baerald.
