“Fatti non foste a viver come bruti, ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza.” Dante Alighieri - Canto XXVI verse 119 of Inferno "You were not made to live like brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge." Throughout history, thinkers and philosophers have sought the path to a balanced and enlightened life, exploring human potential through the Seven Virtues—Charity, Faith, Hope, Courage, Justice, Temperance, and Prudence. These ideals are more than abstract principles; they are forces in constant struggle, shaping those who dare to master them. Virtus is a game of strategic mastery, where players compete to control these Virtues, gaining power and recognition. By securing majorities in specific Virtues, players unlock powerful effects and earn points, but the path to victory requires careful planning and tactical decisions. Each turn, players select cards that represent different Virtues, striving to embody them more fully than their rivals. The player with the most influence over a Virtue gains its unique ability and high-value rewards, while others must adapt their strategy to stay competitive. With set collection, majority control, and variable powers, Virtus offers fast-paced yet deeply tactical gameplay. Designed for 2-7 players, Virtus is easy to learn but rich in strategic depth. Whether you seek a quick, engaging filler or a deeper battle of wits, every match is a test of wisdom and foresight. Will you rise above your opponents and prove your Virtue?
- Virtus!
