Century: Spice Road is a clean, accessible card-based engine-builder set along the historic silk road. You're building a hand of merchant cards that generate and convert spices, working towards fulfilling point cards that reward the most efficient caravans. It plays quickly and rewards players who can spot the best trade routes early.
Each turn you do one of four things: take a market card to add a new trade or harvest action to your hand, play a card to gain or convert spices, claim a victory point card by meeting its spice requirements, or rest to reclaim your played cards. The last round triggers when a player claims their fifth point card.
What's good?
- Fast to learn — four simple actions cover everything
- Engine-building that feels satisfying even at low player counts
- Plays in 30–45 minutes with minimal downtime
- Components can be combined with Century: Golem Edition for a larger game
Who is it for?
- ✔ Players new to engine-building games
- ✔ Fans of card-based resource management
- ✔ Groups wanting a quick but strategic filler

from 35 reviewsI bought this game after reading reviews online and wasn’t disappointed, I’m now thinking about buying a few more copies as Christmas presents!!
Fast and well packaged. Brilliant free add-on to one of the best newest ttrpg
Quick Delivery, easy transaction
Had never heard of Life of games before but it was suggested by Shop app. What a good suggestion it was. The item arrived very well packed and in good time. The product itself is awesome and I feel was a good bargain too.
I would and have recommended already to friends.
Definitely a store to keep an eye on.
Thanks again. Will use again in the future for sure.
Brilliant little game. Very easy to play, very silly. Perfect to take traveling or the pub
Great place to buy from, speedy delivery, great prices. Excellent
Found some items here that were out of stock most places at very reasonable prices. Fast delivery and great service. Will be a return customer!
Great service. Ian’s packed with extreme care, individually wrapped in packaging and boxed carefully. Will definitely use again.
Fantastic to do business with
Great delivery and quality as usual.
fantastic packaging and arrived very quicky
Super speedy delivery
A great game, with short rounds, suitable for our 6 year old and even our 3 yeah old (with a bit of help). The unlock progression really helps bring in new rules and challenges, without overwhelming everyone from the very first game.
It’s not that easy finding a game that my dyslexic ADHD 10yr old son enjoys but this one ticks all his boxes! We love it!!
Fantastic price, swift delivery & EXTREMELY well packaged, which in the age of Amazon has become a forgotten art. Game arrived without a single dent or ding. Perfection & thank you.
