Take your small kingdom from nothing to becoming the emperor!
In 800BC, the Zhou emperor sat on the throne of feudal China. Ruling through wise advisors and able warlords. A single generation later, they were in open revolt against the emperor… and each other… to claim hegemony.
Spring & Autumn: Story of China expands on the “Story system” used in Hellenica: Story of Greece, introducing all-new gameplay elements like a philosophy system, diplomacy and hegemony, honor and dishonor, enhanced combat, new advancements, graduated victory conditions, the Great Wall and barbarian invasions, and did we mention Chinese dragons?
As with all "Story games”, Spring and Autumn: Story of China includes the best AI and solo play system available in a board game.
BE REMEMBERED!

There are several designs under development at Active Magic Games. These include the following:
Dragons Down
A reimagining of Magic Realm inspired by this classic board game that has largely been inaccessible to the gaming community for 40 years. Slay monsters, find loot, and become a legend.
Scrap
A game set during a post-apocalyptic future where players must survive the onslaught of wasteland marauders while scavenging for food, fuel, broken vehicles, and the parts to repair them so they can make their escape.
