Catherine: Cities of the Tsarina

Catherine: Cities of the Tsarina is a strategy board game that challenges you to play cards in clever combinations to earn Catherine the Great’s favor.

Set in the Tsarist Empire of 1762, you take the role of a counselor competing to become the Tsarina’s most trusted advisor. Each turn puts you in a constant dilemma: use a card for its immediate action or place it to activate other cards later. Pursue different paths-trade, fine arts, military strength, or shaping the empire itself-while timing your limited actions for maximum impact. With simultaneous play, the pace stays brisk and every decision feels consequential from start to finish. Available now at Boarding School Games-win Catherine’s trust.
