The Dawn of Mankind


Our ancestors were hard workers, resting only very little. Luckily for us their ingenuity allowed them to make their work easier, day after day. In Stone Age, players are sent back to that arduous period of history. With tools, quite archaic at first, you will be able to collect wood, stone, and gold. These resources will allow you to attain higher levels of knowledge and build sturdier roofs over your head. Though luck plays an important part in the game, only those who master their fate will be able to grasp victory. Finally, one mustn't forget to feed their tribe as that would represent a major setback for them. Relive History!

This is a fun game. Instructions to play are a little confusing, but once you understand the goal of the game, it is fun to play.

Absolutely LOVE this game! Have played it for years and could not find it for sale anywhere. So happy to have found it on this site. This is a really fantastic strategic worker placement game. In my opinion it is easy to learn the rules but takes time to learn the overall strategy - just the way I like my games. It makes it easy to teach to friends but still fun to play over again.

Fun little worker placement with a nice engine builder.

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

In this game, you are managing your workers to try to acquire a variety of items to expand your colony. Each turn, players must decide where to direct their tribe to gather resources so as to acquire other civilizations. Game Play is very simple and direct however there are always a good variety of choices to make to expand your empire.

Easy to learn and quick to teach

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

Stone Age is a great introductory game into the worker placement category. Its easy to learn and teach to new players, however it still has a surprising amount of depth for more advanced players. The dice add just enough of a random element to where strategies will often need to be adjusted on the fly, but not so much that it feels at all like a luck based game. There are limited spaces for placement, so you also get that element of anticipating what other players will need, and then the satisfaction that comes from blocking them from accomplishing it :) This game was my first introduction into the worker placement genre, and I still find myself wanting to bring it out whenever I can.
