  1. 8.5 out of 10

    This is one of the more interesting Euros I've played. It feels very focused which I appreciate. The live, fluctuating economy is pretty neat. The components are lovely. Always enjoy this one.

  2. 7 out of 10

    The game seems artificially close. I'm not sure if you can maneuver the actions and building spaces enough to consistently win the game.

  3. 6 out of 10

    I understand why this game is so popular, but honestly I don't like it at all. First of all the mechanic is great and innovative, I hope it will be used in other games later, because it is something that deserves attention. But other than that the game doesn't offer much for me. The constantly fluctuating exchange rate make it impossible to think ahead and to build a strategy. It's a highly tactical game, but way too unbalanced even for that. That can be really frustrating. It seems like you have a lot of options in this game, but in fact the game helps you to know what's worth doing. If the exchange rate is high, then sell. If it low, then build, build, build, because building is way too strong action, especially with the patrician scoring. Mining is hardly worth the action, and Saint Barbara tokens can be really strong, but sometimes not at all. So it's too easy to find out what you should doing in your turn. In other words the ideas are smart and innovative, but not well translated into the game.

Join other ambitious guild leaders in mining and developing the famous City of Silver during its period of rapid economic growth and expansion in the 14th century — from the first discovery of silver near the Cistercian monastery to the construction of Kutná Hora, which quickly became one of the most important cities in central Europe.

Kutná Hora: The City of Silver is a historical city-building Eurogame for 2-4 players that features a real-life supply and demand experience in which every action you take has an impact on the game’s dynamic economic systems.

In each round, players take turns selecting actions from a hand of double-sided cards to engage strategic plans like mining, purchasing plots of land on which to build, gaining permits, raising buildings for their affiliated guilds, gaining profit from their production, and of course working towards the construction of Saint Barbara’s Cathedral.

The asymmetrical nature of each player’s available guilds makes for highly interactive rounds in which each decision impacts the economy and other players in interesting ways as they expand their mines and build infrastructure across a shared board.

Mine ore and smelt it into a fortune of silver for expanding this beautiful historic city, but take care to balance your personal goal advancement with the need to further the city’s growth. Everything is connected, and sometimes the path to personal victory relies on the prosperity of the many.
