Porta Nigra*

The largest Roman city north of the Alps in the late Roman Empire was Augusta Treverorum. Players take on the roles of Roman architects working on the Porta Nigra gate, moving their master builders around a circular track to buy or build in specific locations. Careful planning is crucial, as transporting builders to distant areas is costly, and players must manage their actions based on the cards in their personal decks. Buildings are constructed on the board using 3D blocks.
