Players take control of the civilizations of ancient Greece. Through auctions in each of the 8 rounds, the players develop their civilizations, adding territory through Land Tiles and prestigious buildings through the Building Tiles. These increase the civilizations' inhabitants, luxury, wealth and power. Luxury goods allow flexibility in providing for a player's population, while some tiles also offer protection against the many disasters that happen during the game. Only through a balance of inhabitants, land and buildings can a player claim victory and join the heroes of Peloponnesian history. Los jugadores controlan civilizaciones en la antigua Grecia. A través de subastas en cada una de las 8 rondas, los jugadors desarrollarán sus civilizaciones añadiendo territorios y edificios. Esto incrementa la población, el lujo, poder y riqueza. Sólo con una proporción adecuada de población, territorios y edificios un jugador podrá reclamar la victoria y convertirse en un héroe de la historia del Peloponeso.
