Breezy and Strategic Turns

Playing Vienna is as simple as moving thinkers between various locations in the city. Host thinkers by seating them at tables in your salon and common interests will yield new ideas and important works of art.

When an idea has enough support, you can publish it in one of Vienna’s prestigious societies and eventually launch great movements for prestige.

Easy to Learn, Hard to Master
Find the right balance between hosting, sponsoring and publishing to stay ahead of other salons, as you forge your path in the city’s golden age.

Publish court-sponsored ideas for a quick boost, but don’t forget to support music and the arts or you’ll fall behind. And when historic movements are triggered and spread to greater Europe, make sure it’s your salon that gets the credit.

Rich Historical Theme

The salons and coffee houses of late 19th century Vienna were the city's living rooms. Intellectual discussions from a mix of classes and backgrounds laid the foundation for modern society. Dive into this era and define your legacy as you guide The City of Ideas into a new modern age.
