Kraftwagen: Age of Engineering (2024)

About this game

Despite the fact that the North American automobile industry developed later than in Europe, the innovations in the mass production of vehicles and the immense internal market made the American automobile industry the largest and most powerful in the world. In Kraftwagen: Age of Engineering, you will push the development of new engines and bodies with which to launch the best possible range of vehicles on the market, and you will have the opportunity to demonstrate the power of your engines in the first Grand Prix that were held in American territory. Kraftwagen: Age of Engineering reimplements the original design by Matthias Cramer with improvements and simplifications that lessen the luck factor. Let the roar of the engines resound, let the design of the new models attract buyers from all corners of the world, and get the prestige necessary to become the most famous car builder. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 3.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 13 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
