Description
Arkwright is an economic board game designed by Stefan Risthaus, where players take on the roles of entrepreneurs in 18th-century England, building and managing factories. In this new anniversary edition, the game has been streamlined and updated with a new rulebook and artwork. The game offers different play experiences through various modules, including "Spinning Mule" and "Waterframe" variants, as well as an East India module. It also features a solo mode, known as "Automa," which allows a single player to compete against artificial opponents.
In Arkwright, players act as entrepreneurs, producing and selling goods like cloth, cutlery, lamps, and bread across various markets. They manage up to four factories, balancing workers and machines, while navigating opportunities and challenges presented by events at the end of each decade. The goal is to outmaneuver competitors, accumulate wealth, and raise company share value - without falling into debt, which results in an automatic loss. Succeed during the early Industrial Revolution and drive both your company and England's growth.
- Players act as entrepreneurs in 18th-century England, focusing on building and managing factories all while increasing their share price.
- This is "the" economic simulation with a heavy complexity and a focus on player choice.
- Includes Waterframe, Spinning Mule, East India Company, and asymmetrical variants for those looking to get the most out of this classic heavy weight Euro-game.
- All new solo mode by original game designer Stefan Risthaus.
