Embark on an extraordinary journey through 1,200 years of Christian history with The Mission: Early Christianity from the Crucifixion to the Crusades. This captivating grand strategy solitaire board game invites you to spread the Christian faith amid the rise and fall of secular empires and ever-shifting political landscapes.

Set against a beautifully detailed map of the ancient Mediterranean, Near East, Europe, and Africa, players take on the role of dedicated missionaries, tirelessly working to convert diverse regions to the burgeoning religion.

Each turn represents decades of rich history, immersing you in the trials and triumphs faced by early Christianity. Experience the glorious expansion of faith as you engage in doctrinal battles and witness the establishment of vital institutions that educate, heal, and inspire communities. Empower your evangelistic efforts with the support of apostles and brilliant theologians.

However, navigate carefully! The complex relationship between the Church and the Roman/Byzantine state, alongside Christian kingdoms, plays a crucial role in both the establishment and defense of faith. Heresies and schisms will challenge your plans, while barbarian hordes and the emerging armies of Islam may put Christian communities on the defensive during the tumultuous Dark Ages.

As you progress through the game, strive for victory that culminates in a magnificent resurgence with the Crusaders and the Spanish Reconquista, reclaiming lost territories for Christendom.

No matter if you're a beginner or an experienced strategist, The Mission offers an intriguing and unique gameplay experience. This is a war of ideas that remains a wargame at heart. Manage scarce resources, including precious holy relics, and make strategic decisions that will determine the fate of your mission.

Can you forge a strong, united, and prosperous Christendom? The path is yours to shape!
