First play of David's new game Century: Eastern Wonders which is a companion game to Century: Spice Road. Eastern Wonders can be played as a standalone game or integrated with Spice Road. Even the box art integrates...
Eastern Wonders uses the same core dynamic as Spice Road with four commodities which can be traded one for the other to create sets that can be used to buy treasures for victory points. This time, instead of a hand of cards, players sail their ship across a series of islands, creating markets which can be used to trade the various commodities. So different enough to feel like a different game rather than a re-implementation but familiar enough to get playing quickly and enjoy the connection with the first game.
David was the first to collect a fourth treasure and initiate the final round, winning the game with 79 points against James 73 and Andy 56.
