## Description

Founders of Gloomhaven

## Features

- Founders of Gloomhaven is a competitive tile-placement, action-selection, city-building game in which each player controls a fantastical race working to build the city of Gloomhaven and gain influence over its residents. This is a standalone game set in the same universe as Gloomhaven. The events, however, take place hundreds of years before Gloomhaven and depict the original construction of the city.
- In Founders of Gloomhaven, players use action cards to place resource buildings on the map of the city, use these resources to create more advanced resources, then deliver them to proposed building sites to earn prestige. An individual player, however, cannot do everything on their own because they can import only a small number of resource types, depending on their race. To create more advanced resources, they have to work with other players.
- The game also features an auction mechanism in which players vote periodically to determine which new building proposals come out and where they are placed on the board. Players can also add the influence they've gathered to increase the strength of their vote.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Should this game be played before starting gloomhaven core game?**
A: You do get an extra city event card for Gloomhaven when you play so that’s neat. If you are going to play both anyway, I think you might as well start with this game just to get some background on the races and the city (at least reading the race cards from this game). 

But as others have said Founders isn’t necessary to play Gloomhaven and the gameplay is completely different.

**Q: What is the minimum/maximum number of players that can play?**
A: Board games geek says it is 1-4 players. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/214032/founders-gloomhaven
