Opera*

In 1607, Monteverdi's opera La Favola d'Orfeo premiered, marking the beginning of operatic influence across Europe. Players bring opera to the public by building grand opera houses in key cities and navigating through the Baroque, Classicism, and Romantic eras. Strategic budget management and planning are vital for success, as players seek to earn money and control their operatic empire while balancing immediate gains with long-term goals. The game unfolds over nine rounds, divided into three episodes, culminating in a scoring round where the player with the most victory points wins.
