For 2-5 players aged 13+

Beseech the gods of Olympus and release the most powerful mythical creatures of ancient Greece as you claw your way to the top.  Build armies and cities, hire scholars and priests, and be the first to build your metropolis.

Each player in Cyclades will lead his people in their conquest of ancient Greece.  Only by creating the most magnificent cities of all time will you claim your place as the rightful ruler of the Cyclades!

Includes 95 figurines.

Players must buy the favor of the gods in their race to be the first player to build two cities in the Ancient Greek island group known as the Cyclades.

Victory requires respect for all the gods - players cannot afford to sacrifice to only one god, but must pay homage to each of five gods in turn.   Each turn, the players bid for the favours of the gods, as only one player can have the favour of each god per turn - and each player is also limited to the favour of a single god per turn.

Ares allows the movement of player armies and the building of Fortresses.
Poseidon allows players to move their navies and build Ports.
Zeus allows his followers to hire priests and build temples.
Athena provides her worshipers with philosophers and universities.
Apollo increases the income of his worshipers.
