Minute Realms

About this board game

Minute Realms is a compact city-building game for 2–5 players that plays in about 30 minutes. Across a handful of rounds, players develop their realms, spend their riches, and make crucial decisions that can lead to victory or defeat.

As a king, every choice matters. You must decide how best to use your wealth as your realm takes shape. Will you bring splendor to your lands by constructing refined buildings, or will you focus on defense with imposing bastions?

The threat of invaders creates an important challenge throughout the game. A prosperous realm may need more than beautiful development, while a well-defended land must still grow. Balancing these priorities is central to building a successful kingdom.

• Players: 2–5
