Competitive style of gameplay with limited building spaces and an intense ship-loading race
Art direction focused on strong historical atmosphere
In Thessaloniki you are the patrician of one of the most prominent families in the city, during its 4th century Roman era. Dabbling in fluctuating commerce and intense politics, they compete for riches and influence. Yet the shrewdest will rise above the chaos, managing with meticulous planning and strategic acumen to overpower their opponents and wrest fortune and control from their opponents clutches.
In Thessaloniki, players take the role of influential patricians that seek to produce and trade commodities, build trading posts and monuments, fulfil contracts, and meet the demands of other trading hubs of the era. Consisting of a variable number of rounds, players alternate taking turns and building their strategies by moving their works on a rondel-style board. In each turn you gain commodities, take actions, and trigger an end-of-turn effect where applicable.
