Universe
The legendary Atlantis is shrouded in so many stories and myths, an island realm that was reputed to have completely drowned in only one night.
Atlantis Exodus presents the player kings with the challenge of rescuing as many citizens as possible before the impending downfall and, by doing so, saving the knowledge they have acquired for a different world and time.
Thanks to an innovative rotation mechanism, 1-4 kings have to face constantly changing conditions and keep adjusting their own strategy to the different action possibilities in order to ultimately become the savior of the achievements of their time.
Gameplay
The game is played over 5 years.
Each year consists of three rounds.
Each round is composed of 2 distinct phases:
1. Place the King
Place your King on any empty space on the inner disc of the city of Atlantis.
2. Perform Actions
A. Advance along the Apotheosis track
B. Train a Settler
C. Send a Settler
D. Take a Knowledge card
E. Play an Influence card
After completing the 3rd round of the current year and, if applicable, calculating settlement scores, the year ends.
After years 1 through 4, you prepare the settlement for the following year.
There is no setup for the 5th year.
Then, the final scoring takes place.
