Lead your Gens to glory across the rise of Rome!

Shape the Legacy of Rome
In Æterna, you guide a powerful Roman Gens (family) through three transformative eras: the Roman Kingdom, the Republic, and the Empire. Your mission is to elevate your family’s prestige by expanding influence across the city, contributing to monumental achievements, and managing the delicate balance of public favor.

As a leader, you must support the conquest of provinces, govern the famed "seven hills of Rome," and contribute to the construction of architectural marvels. Yet, with power comes responsibility—neglecting the needs of the people in your territories may incite unrest, tarnishing your reputation and hindering your rise to greatness.

Gameplay Overview
Æterna combines resource management, area control, and strategic planning. Players must manage cards, resources, and majorities to outmaneuver their rivals. Influence is key—whether you're funding military conquests, overseeing construction, or consolidating power in vital regions, every decision shapes the legacy of your Gens.

Success requires a keen eye on both short-term gains and long-term strategy. Maintain stability within your controlled hills while outpacing your opponents in Rome’s dynamic political and social landscape.

Game Summary:
With its thematic focus on Roman history and a blend of strategy and interaction, Æterna offers a richly immersive experience. Will your family’s name stand the test of time as one of Rome’s greatest, or will unrest and rivalries overshadow your ambitions? Take your place in the annals of Roman history and ensure your Gens is remembered forever!
