Minos^*

4,000 years ago, Crete was ruled by Minos, the son of Zeus and Europa, giving rise to the Minoan civilization, the first advanced culture in Europe. Players build their own trading empire by crossing the Mediterranean with ships, establishing new settlements and trade centers. The game ends when all city sites are settled and at least two complete cities are built, with the winner being the player who has the highest income at that point.
