Description Description
In Futuropia, Friedemann Friese's big utopian economic game for 1-4 optimizers, players live in a future Utopian society that possesses desirable lifestyle qualities for all of its citizens. Too bad this is not today's reality... In this Utopian society, we all will work much less. Our robots can do nearly everything already. There is no need for great envy. It is simply about equality, justice, and the fair allocation of the complete and still necessary work, which then gives us ALL more leisure time. Success means we will have time for the activities we like the most: fishing, farming, fencing, flying, ..., as well as gaming, building, painting, traveling, composing, and more. If somebody wants to work more than needed, they should do that. This is about the freedom! So let us rethink this: joblessness is not a disgrace, it is the new goal! We are members of a team striving to realize this utopian ideal. We try to develop completely self-sustaining homes that function as efficiently as possible. They must generate enough food and energy to allow the residents the greatest possible freedom (thus, leisure time). The more people in our development who no longer need to work, the closer we are to reaching our goal! The player who builds the best development will win the game, and their development will become reality! Futuropia is a luck-free economic game. To ensure you always encounter new challenges, we offer multiple game set-up variations, which create a variety of gameplay situations, ensuring new experiences and replayability. The solo game offers you an option to learn the mechanisms and processes of Futuropia before you play it with other players. See our hopeful future in...Futuropia!

Luckless engine-building game of an ideal future. I always appreciate how much Friese puts his own philosophy into his game, so the theme worked well for me here. Solid game with a great market mechanic.

This game definitely feels like a Freise game with math-y optimization, forward thinking and planning. The resource generators feel like Power Grid's power plants, as you need to know when to let some of them go. The game play is actually quite simple. You have 5 actions tiles to choose from, then do whats on that tile, and then flip it over. It can't be use again until you flip all action tiles back over but it cost a resource to flip each of them over when you haven't used them yet so timing when to do this is a key aspect to the tough decisions in the game. Overall, a really great game.

Classic Friedemann. Good rules, simple components, no inlay, the typical "green" box. This is an economics centered game, with a little twist. There is a common market, so ample opportunity to throw spanners in the works of your opponents. It is really the gameplay that makes this work, rather than "the board" or the components!
