Children of Fire (2005)

About this game

Choose from one of five celestial factions vying to fulfill a prophecy that will determine the outcome of all mankind. The backdrop for this struggle is an early twentieth century London where politicians, bankers, crime lords, and church leaders try to shape the future. The game is designed for 2-5 players, Ages 12 and up.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.5/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
