Triumph is a multi-player game designed for 2-5 players who control an influential family in Rome. These families will use their symmetric family decks to bid for positioning to gain control of various political offices to perform actions like build and occupy buildings, lead great campaigns against the barbarian invaders on the frontier, place influence in the form of clients in the various provinces of Rome to gain prestige and power and remove their enemies from the board. The game is a semi-cooperative effort that means all players will lose if any barbarian army enters the gates of Rome but only one player will stand supreme as a great and memorable historical leader in the development of the greatest empire the world has ever known.

We were able to play a prototype copy of the game and put together a preview video to promote the campaign. This one is really very good and keeps players involved and engaged with negotiations, backstabbing, and bluffing. There never was a dull moment in the game and the thematic integration of the theme with the mechanics worked really well to create a fun and interesting experience.
