1849: Gold Edition
1849 is a city management game set during the California Gold Rush. Your task is to build towns, populate them with workers, and make sure that they are housed, fed, and entertained. You’ll have to manage and coordinate extensive production and trade networks to make sure your towns thrive.
1849: Nevada Silver expands on 1849’s simulation gameplay to provide more challenge on a bustling new frontier:
– Six new Nevada city scenarios, from frontier outposts to bustling boom towns, plus sandbox mode
– Train-based trading system adds a new strategic dimension
– New buildings, mines, and resources based on the industry and technology of the era
The Epilogue presents two final scenarios, taking place in the period after the gold rush, as the people of California attempted to forge a new identity in a state that went through an irreversible transformation.
Will you strike gold and become an overnight mining magnate? Or will you build your fortune bit by bit by supplying 49ers with pickaxes and blue jeans?
