This new edition of Bruxelles 1893 is completed with its Belle Époque expansion, both offered in a single big box. Although it respects the spirit of the original game, this new version of Brussels 1893 has been mechanically, graphically and ergonomically redesigned. Those who love Brussels 1893 will find all the pleasure of the original game, and even more because Belle Époque considerably expands the strategic possibilities, without increasing the length of a game.

In the Belle Époque expansion, players will experience:

New Public Figures and White Works of Art
Blocker Tiles and End Game Goals
Special Actions and a Brand New Material

Bruxelles 1893 is a worker placement game with elements of bidding and majority control. Each player is an architect of the late 19th century and is trying to achieve, through various actions, an architectural work in the Art Nouveau style. The most successful building yields the most points. Each player can also create works of art to increase his score.

The action board is modular, with not every player having access to each action each turn. Some actions cost money – acquiring high-quality materials, building a level of your personal house, finding a patron, creating a work of art, selling that art for money and prestige – while other actions are free but can potentially cause you to lose one of your workers; these latter actions include acquiring low-quality materials, activating your patrons, visiting the stock exchange, and taking one of the actions with a cost. Once everyone has passed on taking more actions, the round ends and players have an art exhibition during which they can sell works. After this, players receive prestige points or bonus cards based on the symbols they've placed their workers next to on the action board.

After five rounds, the game ends and players score bonus points based on their architect level, their bonus cards, how well they've completed their work, and their money on hand. The player with the most points wins.

BRUXELLES 1897

In 1897, Art Nouveau is taking over the streets of Brussels as the World's Fair opens its doors. The time has come to cement your name in the History of Art. To achieve all of this, you must construct magnificent buildings, create, sell and exhibit works of art, and shake hands with the city's noblemen.

Bruxelles 1897 is a card game based on the Bruxelles 1893 board game.

Bruxelles 1897 will speak to a large audience of gamers. Its mechanics are based on Bruxelles 1893 and are made simpler without compromising depth. Those who know the board game Bruxelles 1893 will rediscover its familiar look and feel in Bruxelles 1897.

A game of Bruxelles 1897 is played over 4 rounds. A round consists of a variable number of turns. In this version, the different actions are represented by Action cards which are aligned in 4 columns.

At the beginning of the game, each player has 5 Architect cards in hand. These cards have different values on them, ranging from 1 to 5, and you'll use them to perform actions in the Art Nouveau and Brussels areas.

To perform an action in the Art Nouveau area, you must replace one Action card by one of your Architect cards and pay the latter's value. Actions in the Brussels area are free but they require an increasing number of Architect cards to activate, and you risk one of them being sent to prison. The different actions score you victory points throughout the game or help you to advance on the different tracks. These tracks also score you points at the end of the game, depending on the strategies you choose to adopt.

When all players have passed, the round ends. Now, the different majorities are calculated. At the end of the round, the position of the Architect cards in the Art Nouveau area determines the majorities, which in turn grant bonuses and/or victory points.

At the end of the fourth round there is a final scoring phase. The player with the most points is the winner.

Bruxelles 1897 : a game by Geek Attitude Games.

The boardgame Bruxelles 1893 was published by Pearl Games in 2013.
In 2014, Geek Attitude Games was founded by Etienne Espreman (the designer of Bruxelles 1893), Fréderic Delporte and Fabrice Béghin.
Earlier this year, Etienne reclaimed the rights to his game. Bruxelles 1897 will therefore be published by Geek Attitude Games.
Scheduled release for The Spiel in Essen (Octobre 2019).

Every year in late October, the German city of Essen becomes the game capital of the world. Publishers around the world gather to showcase their innovations to the thousands of gamers who come especially for the occasion.

In ESSEN The Game: SPIEL'13, you play as one of those geeks. With your wish list (shopping list), you wander the aisles of the festival in search of the most popular new games — but to achieve your goals, you must face the harsh realities of this show. You must confront a pervasive crowd and make your way to the stands of your favorite publishers. Unfortunately, the availability of games is limited at the end of the show. You will likely not have the opportunity to buy all of your favorite games. Therefore, you will have to face difficult choices! On the other hand, you have come to Essen to try new games and your desires will change during the day. It is likely that after trying some of them, you will jump compulsively to new purchases.

Be careful not to take on more than you can carry. The increasing number of games that you hold in your bags reduces your mobility through the area. During the day, you need to return to the parking lot to store your purchases in the trunk of your car, which will probably also be the perfect time to check your budget. For all the big spenders, the cash dispenser is available, with the risk of running into debts beyond reason. With an empty bag and full wallet, you have only one thing in mind: Getting back in the show, frantic to buy more games.

ESSEN The Game: SPIEL'13 is an opportunity to live or relive a crazy day in the "Kingdom of Games"!
