Era: Medieval Age (ft. The Hexy Beast)
Today we discuss Era: Medieval Age designed by Matt Leacock and published by eggertspiele featuring The Hexy Beast! Era: Medieval Age serves as the spiritual successor to Roll Through The Ages. In Era, your dice represent different classes of medieval society as players attempt to build the most prosperous city. The "build" comes into play as players actually build their cities on their boards. By the end of the game, each player will have a unique city of their very own.
