Secret Societies

For centuries the Secret Societies of Earth have waged a hidden war for control of the world’s territories. But now a final truce has been struck: a single auction will settle everything. Make no mistake — this is no friendly peace. Every society will do whatever it takes to tip the auction in its favour. Those who succeed will be able to turn their nations’ existing industry to their own enrichment, or set the citizenry to work on their own nefarious projects. The time has come… Who will control the Earth when the final hammer falls?
The goal of Secret Societies is to gain the most power by bidding and outwitting your opponents, establishing your institute as the one most worthy of total rule. Take on the role of a unique secret society, equipped with different tools and abilities to give you an edge over the competition. Across 7 rounds you will collect income, bid on holdings, deploy agents, begin projects, make investments, and strive to control the all-important conferences. Not all lands are equal! It falls to you to use your unique skills and advantages to acquire the holdings that best suit your goals.
