Réaux brancos 2025

At the bustling shipyard of Porto in 1492, six skilled artisans compete to earn their place on the expedition to the New World. Their goal: to gather as many réaux brancos, the currency of the time, by forging connections between the shipyard’s various workshops. Each player takes on the role of a unique character, with their own set of colored dice and starting abilities, offering a different strategic approach from the very beginning.

The core gameplay revolves around capturing cards using colored dice, which in turn create links between workshops. Players must constantly choose between connecting distant workshops with high-value cards, or staying closer and collecting numerous low-value cards. Throughout the game, encounters with non-player characters (NPCs) trigger secret quests, offering bonus réaux at the end of the game for those who complete them.

As the game progresses, players develop their characters by collecting evolution gems, purchasing new dice to expand their tactical options, and unlocking three unique powers that can turn the tide in critical moments.
