As a Renaissance banker, you will finance kings or republics, sponsor voyages of discovery, join secret cabals, or unleash jihads and inquisitions. Your choices determine whether Europe is elevated into the bright modern era or remains festering in dark feudalism.
Pax Renaissance is a card drafting and tableau building game, in which you take cards in order to form rows in the East and West (or simply use them directly as a one-time effect), which you can later activate for several effects. You do these things in order to spread your influence over Europe and nearby regions, take concessions around trade routes (to likely gain money) or influence places, move armies to make war campaigns, fund rebellions, gain political and religious renown, all in order to achieve one or more of the 4 winning conditions Pax Renaissance has.
As in other Pax games, you can acquire cards in a market, sell them out of the game, or play them into your tableau. You can also stimulate the economy by running trade fairs and trading voyages for Oriental goods.
It is a fantastic and complex game, yet not so deeply hard to grasp and play. It has a tremendous richness of choices, options, and historical bits, which, all together, provide a tasty and fulfilling experience.

What's coming up next?
More games of course.
But until then...
Take care, and... play fair!
文艺复兴:在时长30 分钟的游戏中体验金钱、影响力和政治元素。
作为一名文艺复兴时期的银行家,您将资助国王或共和国、赞助探险之旅、加入秘密结社或发动圣战和宗教审判。您的选择将决定欧洲是进入光明的现代还是继续在黑暗的封建主义中挣扎。
文艺复兴 是一款卡牌驱动和面板构建游戏,游戏中您可以获取卡片来让他们在东方和西方排成一行(或者直接将它们用作一次性效果),之后您可以激活这些卡片来产生多种效果。这样做是为了将影响力扩展到欧洲和附近地区,在贸易路线上获取特销权(可能是为了赚钱)或影响地方,调动军队进行战争,资助叛乱,获得政治和宗教声誉,所有这些都是为了实现 文艺复兴 的 4 个获胜条件中的一个或多个。
与其他 Pax 游戏一样,您可以在市场中购买卡牌,将其出售,或将其放入您的面板。您还可以通过举办贸易展览会和贸易航行来购买东方商品,从而发展经济。
这是一款精彩而复杂的游戏,但掌握和玩起来却并不困难。它拥有丰富的选择、选项和历史片段,这些结合在一起,提供了令人愉悦而充实的体验。
