Small World is a fantasy board game where 2 to 5 players vie for control of a world that is simply too small to accommodate them all. Players choose combinations of fantasy races and special powers to expand their empires by conquering and occupying territories. The game involves strategic planning, as players must know when to push their civilizations into decline and select new ones to maintain control and gather points. With simple mechanics and high replayability, Small World is suitable for ages 8 and up, taking about 40-80 minutes to play.
