# Eight\-Minute Empire Summer DB entity ID: f7a14f8c\-8cb0\-463a\-8c15\-2ff5a0602bd8 Steam App ID: 656590 Eight\-Minute Empire, by Ryan Laukat, is a quick Civilization/Exploration game using card\-driven area control\. In Eight\-Minute Empire, 2\-5 players take turns selecting a card from the six displayed\. This card gives the player a resource and also has an action that the player takes immediately\. Actions help players take over the map, but the resources are worth points at the end of the game, so players have to balance the two aspects\. Players spread across the map in order to collect points at the end of the game by having majority control in regions and continents\. Eight\-Minute Empire is a super\-quick area control game requiring tough decisions\. It’s easy to learn and perfect for when you only have a few minutes\. βš”οΈ Recruit troops to strengthen your army 🏞️ Command your forces to acquire new provinces 🌎 Challenge your friends all over the world β›΅ Sail across the seas & build castles to expand your empire 🀺 Eliminate enemy troops to weaken your adversaries πŸ‘‘ Collect goods to increase your advantage AWARDS & HONORS Our digital adaptation: πŸ† 2017 Golden Geek Best Board Game App Nominee πŸ† 2017 Golden Geek Best Mobile/Handheld Nominee The board game: πŸ† 2013 Golden Geek Best Family Board Game Nominee πŸ† 2013 Golden Geek Best Print & Play Board Game Nominee πŸ† 2014 Gioco dell’Anno Nominee πŸ† 2014 Gra Roku Nominee Features \- official Eight\-Minute Empire game \- great artwork \- in\-game interactive tutorial \- languages: English, German, Dutch, Polish, French, Spanish, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Chinese Traditional and Simplified, Russian \- optimized for PC, smartphones, and tablets \- play with AI, with friends, or with both \- pass and play mode \- online multiplayer with synchronous and asynchronous modes \- opponents' last moves replay \- 3 levels of difficulty AIs with individual strategies \- different maps \- climate sounds and music \- official rules plus extra additions \- unique, original board game feel on your electronic device \- colorblind mode \- over 70 achievements ## Game information - Type: game - Developer: Acram Digital - Publisher: Acram Digital - Release date: Sep 6, 2017 - Coming soon: false - Free to play: false - Parent Steam app: Not collected - Genres: Casual, Indie, Strategy - Categories: Single\-player, Multi\-player, PvP, Online PvP, Shared/Split Screen PvP, Shared/Split Screen, Cross\-Platform Multiplayer, Steam Achievements, Steam Trading Cards, Remote Play Together, Family Sharing - Platforms: windows, mac, linux - Website: Not collected - Screenshots: https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_8397b1b707a60a635b5a8e15b114df958a6cb919\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_0143a9cad57d69f472d99df92e609225a535129e\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_326d732ee0cfd42f1ec611237661d28936226531\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_4a42eb2be2ab914e9334a2fb4825f3cdfd00aabb\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_ef39cf198e48f1ba02753ee09f478e4e58c9e348\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/656590/ss\_e14f46c27e5ea3ad9a507bfa909eda568af73c7d\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1753693839 - Price: 799 minor units USD; discount 0% - Price country: US ## Observed metrics - Current players: 0 - Steam review count: 128 - Steam positive reviews: 99 - Steam negative reviews: 29 - Steam positive percentage: 77.34375% - Summer DB rating: No native votes Review filters: \{"language":"all","review\_type":"all","purchase\_type":"all","filter\_offtopic\_activity":0\} ## Player history [Seven-day chart data as Markdown](/api/v1/entities/f7a14f8c-8cb0-463a-8c15-2ff5a0602bd8/player-metrics?days=7&format=markdown) Β· [JSON](/api/v1/entities/f7a14f8c-8cb0-463a-8c15-2ff5a0602bd8/player-metrics?days=7) Chart values are hourly observed maxima.
