Brass: Birmingham is an engaging economic strategy game set during the industrial revolution in Birmingham, from 1770 to 1870. Players take on the roles of competing entrepreneurs, working to develop and establish their industries while navigating market demands. The game unfolds in two distinct eras: the canal era and the rail era, each offering unique challenges and opportunities. The goal is to score the most victory points by the end of the game, which are earned through building industries, expanding your network, and selling goods.

Each round, players take turns performing two actions from a variety of choices. You can build industries, connect canals or railways, develop your industries for more points, sell your products, or even take a loan. A new action, called Scout, allows you to discard cards for a chance to gain valuable resources. With its blend of strategy and planning, Brass: Birmingham invites players to immerse themselves in a rich historical setting while competing for success.
