Build an architectural wonder that will transcend future ages! A game is played in three "Ages" of 6 turns. At the beginning of each Age, players receive 7 cards. An Age consists of 6 turns during which participants will play a card allowing them to perform one of three actions: construct a building, build a stage of a Wonder, or receive 3 gold coins. Some constructions require resources that will be produced by the player's Wonder board, by certain cards, or by trading with neighboring cities. At the end of an Age, players compare the number of shield symbols present on their military buildings with the total of each of the two neighboring cities. If a player has a higher total than a neighboring city, they take a Victory token. Once the third and final Age has passed, players count all their resources (buildings, treasures, etc.). The one who has accumulated the most points wins.
7 Wonders is a strategy game for 3 to 7 players with an "expert" variant for 2 players.
