Scythe: Engage in a war-torn, mech-filled, dieselpunk 1920s Europe where five factions compete for dominance. Scythe is an engine-building game set in an alternate-history 1920s period. Players represent characters from Eastern Europe factions striving to earn their fortune and establish their faction's presence near the mysterious Factory. They conquer territory, recruit new members, gather resources, build structures, and activate powerful mechs. Suitable for 1-5 players with a playtime of 115 minutes. Recommended for ages 14 and above.
Each player starts with different resources, a unique starting location, and a hidden goal. Starting positions are strategically designed to highlight each faction's individuality and the asymmetrical nature of the game. The streamlined action-selection mechanism ensures fast-paced gameplay and minimizes downtime between turns. While the game offers opportunities for direct conflict, there is no player elimination.
Choose from four top row actions: move, bolster, trade, and produce. After taking a top row action, players can select a corresponding action from the bottom row: upgrade, deploy, build, and enlist. Throughout the game, players earn stars by achieving goals. The game concludes when a player places their 6th star. Final scores are determined based on coins, stars, controlled territories, resources, and structure bonuses. The player with the highest score, multiplied by their popularity, wins the game.
In addition to the base game, explore the expansions and standalone games offered by the Stonemaier Store.

The Scythe game is set in an alternate history of 1920s Europe. The Factory, a city-state with heavily armored mechs, has closed down, attracting the attention of neighboring countries. This period is characterized by farming, war, innovation, broken hearts, and rusted gears. The game offers variability through its five different factions and player boards. It also provides quick turns with its streamlined action-selection mechanism and low luck and randomness. The game features beautifully designed artwork by Jakub Rozalski and includes solo play with an Automa opponent. Published by Stonemaier, an acclaimed tabletop game publisher, their portfolio includes popular titles such as Viticulture, Euphoria, Wingspan, and Tapestry.
