Exploration Overview
Alt. Names:
Christoph Kolumbus, Exploration: A Game of Strategy and World Conquest, Voyages of Discovery
Exploration is a strategy simulation that places the player in control of a nation's imperial ambitions during the Age of Sail. The historical scope spans from the late 15th century to the close of the 18th century.
Players manage the financial and logistical elements of overseas expansion, which includes funding voyages, organizing crews, and establishing colonies. The game also involves conflict with rival European powers as part of the competition for global influence.
Its thematic focus on maritime discovery and colonial management invites comparison to other titles in the genre, such as Civilization and Sid Meier's Pirates!.
