Century: A New World is the third and final installment of the Century series from designer Emerson Matsuuchi.
Century: A New World sends players to the Americas at the dawn of the 16th century. Braving the wilderness, players are forced to explore new lands, trade with local inhabitants, journal their findings, and hunt/gather to survive! The game integrates the compelling and incredibly fun resource trading mechanisms found in the Century series with a worker placement mechanism with a twist!
Century: A New World may be combined with Century: Spice Road or Century: Eastern Wonders or both for all new mixable games.

A New World The most strategically/tactically rich, streamlined, sub hour, worker placement game I've ever played. - 8/10 East to West Part 1 - (ANW + SR) The best card system of any of the Spice Road variations. The most seamless and natural blend of two base games. Decisions felt very consequential in this variation. - 8.25/10 East to West Part 2 - (ANW + EW) Improves the obtaining bonus tiles system by adding a slight layer of strategy. Feels like it has slightly less interesting worker placement options than other A New World variations. Tied for the most setup of the series. - 7.75/10 East to West Part 3 - (ANW + SR + EW) Basically East to West Part 2 Plus. Fixes the issue of having less interesting worker placement options. Feels slightly anticlimactic in the way it incorporates all three games. Tied for the most setup of the series. - 8/10

Played at GrandCon with designer. The third chapter of the Century series is a fantastic game. It ticks so many boxes - easy to learn, interesting choices, worker placement, etc.

Feel like this is the last step in a system designed to get players into a worker placement frame of mind. Essentially workers go onto board to either get, or trade up goods which then used to buy cards to gain points etc. QUite a complex game even though it is light for a worker placement game.
