Eight-Minute Empire, by Ryan Laukat, is a quick Civilization/Exploration game using card-driven area control.

In Eight-Minute Empire, 2-5 players take turns selecting a card from the six displayed. This card gives the player a resource, and also has an action which the player takes immediately. Actions help players take over the map, but the resources are worth points at the end of the game, so players have to balance the two aspects. Players spread across the map in order to collect points at the end of the game by having majority control in regions and continents.

Eight-Minute Empire is the super-quick area control game requiring tough decisions. It’s easy to learn and perfect for when you only have a few minutes.

Eight-Minute Empire August 2019 Update - Online Play Overhaul

Good news! Per popular demand, we introduce a rework to the Online Play in Eight-Minute Empire! Its goal is to improve the quality of life during online play by adding some much asked for features and functionalities.

The changes are as follows:
- Asynchronous play - an inactive player will be removed by the server after 48 hours without making a move. No more unfinished games limbo!
- When creating a room a maximum amount of players can be set.
- The games will start automatically once the maximum amount of players is reached. The creator of a room no longer has to manually start the game.
- Synchronous play - the timer has been reworked. Now a player will be removed from the game only if they go offline (willingly or due to a disconnect) for three minutes.
- Fixed a bug that caused some players not seeing certain rooms from the Open Rooms list.
