1759 Siege of Quebec

About this board game

1759 Siege of Quebec is a wargame for 1–2 players with an approximately 90-minute play time, focused on command decisions during a major siege. It is the first game in Worthington’s Great Sieges series and is designed for easy setup and quick gameplay.

The game was developed for solitaire play, with a solitaire game engine opponent that puts your decisions to the test. You can play as either the French or the British against the system, or use the two-player version for a head-to-head contest.

Rather than relying on lengthy setup or elaborate components, 1759 Siege of Quebec presents unit placement directly on the game board. Wooden markers represent troop and ship formations, giving the battlefield a clear and accessible physical presence.
