Description
Century: Golem Edition is a re-themed version of Century: Spice Road set in the world of Caravania. In Century: Golem Edition, players are caravan leaders who travel the famed golem road to deliver crystals to the far reaches of the world. Each turn, players perform one of four actions:
Establish a trade route (by taking a market card)
Make a trade or harvest crystals (by playing a card from hand)
Fulfill a demand (by meeting a victory point card's requirements and claiming it)
Rest (by taking back into your hand all of the cards you've played)
The last round is triggered once a player has claimed their fifth victory point card, then whoever has the most victory points wins.

Quotes (from this video)
- so apparently you're not a real board gamer until you own one of these things
- I am officially a white dude standing in front of a calyx
- across the top shelf a lot of these games will feature in my top 100 unsurprisingly
- this is a shelf hog it's a really good game and everything but it's kind of overkill in the end
- I can't afford to buy every single game out there I've got a lot on the shelves as you can see but I can't get everything
- a whole bunch of really cool little games in here and some of my particular favorites
