FFG Asks Us to Travel to Olympus

May 9, 2011

Fantasy Flight Games has announced the upcoming release of Olympus. It’s time for gamers to travel back to ancient Greece as each takes on the role of creating the greatest city state of the era!

From FFG:

Praise the gods, and reign over Ancient Greece! In Ancient Greece, a leader of a polis or ‘city-state’ worshipped the mighty Olympian gods for the wisdom to lead. With the favor of the gods these leaders developed their poleis’ populations and cultures, waged wars, and erected magnificent buildings and temples. Now you have been chosen by the gods to lead one of these poleis – oversee your people’s path to greatness and your own path to dominion over all of Peloponnesus! In Olympus, players send out their cunning priests to worship the fickle Olympian deities, who, in turn, grant divine favors to any priest who will perform a ceremony in their name. Use the gods for your own mortal purposes to increase your agricultural production, advance your culture, erect buildings, and go to war.

Look for Olympus to hit store shelves later this month!
