PRESSEMITTEILUNG
SPIEL! 2011: EGGERTSPIELE FLIES ON THE PEGASUS
FRIEDBERG/HAMBURG, OCTOBER 14 , 2011 – FUTURE GAMES FROM EGGERTSPIELE BEYOND THE
TH
ALREADY ANNOUNCED „SANTIAGO DE CUBA“ WILL CONTINUE TO BE PUBLISHED BY PEGASUS SPIELE. THIS
INCLUDES „VILLAGE“ FROM INKA AND MARKUS BRAND, WHICH WILL HAVE ITS HANDS-ON WORLD
PREMIERE IN ESSEN, SOON TO BE FOLLOWED BY A RELEASE IN ENGLISH AND GERMAN. OTHER ANNOUNCED
GAMES UNDER THIS PARTNERSHIPOARE THE HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO „SPEICHERSTADT“ AND A
NEW VERSION OF „CUBA“.
VILLAGE *world premiere*
Life in this village can be tough, but every inhabitant is free to chosse his path. Some will heed the call of
the cloth, while others will try to make a career in town hall; some will even try to make a fortune abroad.
Each player has control over one family and all its members on their way to fame and fortune...or an
early death. Time can never be stopped, but gaining entry into the village's chronicles will ensure your
family's renown – and your chances of victory – growing. Village is a challenging game, with an
innovative turn mechanism that ensures a fast-paced game full of tactical choice. But beware the grim
reaper, whose constant threat demands a keen eye for time management.
Speicherstadt: Kaispeicher
With Kaispeicher, there will be even to do in between the warehouses and channels of the
Speicherstadt. This long-awaited expansion adds new wares and cards to the game, including not only
new buildings, oders and ships, but also several actions that will allow you to gain an advantage or make
life difficult for your opponents. There is also a new figure for each player, which, in conjunction with the
new auction mechanism, will add a whole new level of tactical options. This expansion is being rounded
out with 25 real metal coins, bringing even more life to the bustling port city of Hamburg!
Cuba
Cuba is a strategic boardgame for 2-5 business-savvy islanders that unfolds a unique caribbean flair. The
game's core is in the island's legislature, where players will regularly have to to decide on what laws to
implement, providing immense replayability. It all comes down to timing: being a worked, merchant,
architect or major in the right place at the right time will allow players to raise new buildings or load
ships, bringing them much closer to victory. Cuba is a game that manages to blend easy to learn rules
with a broad range of strategic options.
