Empyreal: Spells and Steam
Become a railway magnate in a beautifully rendered fantasy world!
Use mystical trains to cross a diverse landscape and gather exotic goods. Each contract you fulfill builds up your company, introducing new abilities and redefining how you play. Build the ultimate railway company and conquer the frontier—with magic!
Empyreal: Spells & Steam plays 2–6 Players and is quick to set-up and play, and easy to store. At just 20 minutes per player, the game can be described as an "express" train game, but the huge variety of options and powers mean that each game will reveal new strategies, in classic Level 99 style. It's also surprisingly confrontational and cutthroat, as the genre goes.
Only the savviest and most creative industrialist will be able to lead the world of Indines into the modern era!
