Opera

Bring operas by famous composers to the stage as new opera houses rise across Europe. Players build venues in cities such as Venice, Vienna, Berlin, London, Paris, and Milan, acquire operas from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods, and manage budgets, ducats, and capacity. Each round, budgeting determines play order and activates characters with different effects. Over nine rounds divided into three episodes, players develop their opera network, earn income, and score victory points in counting rounds. The player with the most points at the end wins.
