Khôra: Rise of an Empire

Players lead rival Greek city-states and develop their polis across nine rounds. On each turn, a player takes two of seven Actions — Philosophy, Legislation, Culture, Trade, Military, Politics, or Development — and applies those Actions in combination with a dice roll. Actions are upgraded by advancing markers on Economy, Culture, and Military tracks, while separate Taxes, Troop, and Glory tracks provide drachmas, exploration/knowledge tokens, and ways to spend knowledge. Players unlock Achievements and adapt strategy each round to score points. The player with the most points after the ninth round wins.
