Good times in the tiny kingdom of Emara: During the reign of King Thedorius the Wise, wars, uprisings and other inconveniences became a thing of the past. Thedorius always cared more for the well-being of his subjects than for power or riches.

Crown of Emara skillfully combines card actions with worker movement actions, allowing players to plan their turns carefully. The two counselors available to every player move in two separate roundabouts, requiring players to optimize every move. Additionally, two scoring tracks lead to a multidimensional playstyle, as only the lower score counts towards victory and thus both tracks have to be advanced equally.
