Step into the world of ambition and prosperity with Carnegie!

Inspired by the remarkable life of Andrew Carnegie, born in Scotland in 1835, this engaging board game invites you to explore the intricate tapestry of a self-made titan. After emigrating to the United States in 1848 with his family, Carnegie transitioned from a humble telegraphist to a pivotal force in developing the American steel industry, ultimately becoming one of the wealthiest individuals in history and a true symbol of the American dream.

Beyond his financial success, Andrew Carnegie was a dedicated benefactor and philanthropist. By the time of his passing in 1919, he had generously donated over $350 million to various foundations and organizations, along with another $30 million to charities. His legacy lives on through nearly 2,500 free public libraries that proudly carry his name: the Carnegie Libraries.

In Carnegie, you will dive into the thrilling challenge of recruiting and managing a talented workforce, expanding your business empire, investing in prime real estate, and producing and selling goods. As you create intricate transport chains across the United States, you may even collaborate with notable figures of the era or aspire to become a distinguished benefactor contributing to your country’s greatness through acts of generosity.

The game unfolds over 20 exciting rounds, with each player taking turns to make strategic moves. On your turn, you can select from one of four actions, which other players may also choose to follow, fostering a dynamic and collaborative gameplay experience.

Your ultimate objective? Construct the most prestigious company, as measured by valuable victory points, and etch your name into history alongside one of the greatest philanthropists of all time!
