With 36 double-sided company cards, unique auction mechanics, and a 30-60 minute playtime, it challenges players to strategically acquire and upgrade companies, manage resources, and outsmart rivals to become the wealthiest capitalist. Designed for ages 14+, it combines historical artwork with fast, deep gameplay that’s perfect for millennials seeking a smart, social board game experience. ## Description Furnace is an engine-building Eurogame in which players take on the roles of 19th-century capitalists building their industrial corporations and aspiring to make as much money as they can by purchasing companies, extracting resources, and processing them in the best combinations possible. Each player starts the game with a random start-up card, the resources depicted at the top of that card, and four colored discs valued 1-4. The game is played over four rounds, and each round consists of two phases: Auction and Production. During the auction, 6-8 company cards are laid out with their basic sides face up. Players take turns placing one of their discs on one of these cards, but you cannot place a disc on a card if a disc of the same value or color is already present. Thus, you'll place discs on four cards. Once all the discs are placed, the cards are resolved from left to right. Whoever placed the highest-valued disc will claim this card, but first anyone with a lower-valued disc on this card will gain compensation, either the resources depicted multiplied by the value of their disc or a processing ability (exchange X for Y) up to as many times as the value of their disc. Once all the cards have been claimed or discarded, players enter the production phase, using their cards in the order of their choice. Each company card has one action β€” either production or processing β€” on its basic side and two actions on its upgraded side. During the production phase, you can use each of your cards once to gain resources, process those resources into other resources or money, and upgrade your cards. At the end of four rounds, whoever has the most money wins. Furnace also includes capitalist cards that contain unique effects, and if you want, you can choose to deal one out to each player at the start of the game. For an additional challenge, you can require players to create a "production chain", with each newly acquired company card being placed somewhere in that chain and locked in position for the remainder of the game.

It is a fast-paced game that combines originality, strategy, luck, and ease of learning. This is definitely family friendly and can be easily set up. The only drawback would be that you can only play with four people. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***N on 15 August 2023* While the theme sounds dry, the game itself is not complicated and pretty fun. A good filler game! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***I on 7 September 2023* A great game - a light weight engine builder centered around a clever auction mechanic for deciding who gets to buy what cards. An ingenious system keeps it from feeling too bad when someone "beats you out" to a card you were after, and the next opportunity is always around the corner anyway. Best of all it's fast to set up, easy to teach, and quick to play, so you can always hope to win the rematch! But what pushed this to a 5 star was how I was treated when my copy arrived missing some components. I notified the company via their website and within minutes received an email that replacement parts were in the mail. They arrived within days, and I couldn't be happier with the game or with how Arcane Wonders treats their customers. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arcane Wonders Furnace - Furnace: Interbellum Board Game - Arcane Wonders Furnace Playmat --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/370337059-furnace](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/370337059-furnace) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
