Age of Comics: The Golden Years is a worker-placement game in which players run a comic book publishing company during the gold age of comics. In each round, the players use their editor meeples to complete various publishing tasks, such as hiring a creative team, developing new comic books (or creating rip-offs of those published by competitors), and printing and selling them across Manhattan's newsstands. As more comic books are published, special actions and rewards are unlocked to power up players' strategies.
To become the top comic book publisher and win the game, the player must earn the most victory points at the end of five rounds by publishing comics and gathering a fan base for htem, generating new ideas for new comics, improving their printing quality, and earning money.
Superheroes, romance, crime, sci-fi, western, or horror . . . Which comics will you create to become a comic book industry mogul?
