Eight-Minute Empire, by Ryan Laukat, is a quick turn based Civilization/Exploration game using card and coins based area control mechanics.

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. Mind your coins, though! They're limited and you need them to get the cards you want!

8 Minute Empire is a super-quick area control game requiring tough decisions. It’s easy to learn and perfect for when you, your friends or your family only have a few minutes.

User Reviews

Reviewers praise Eight-Minute Empire for deep, strategic play, quick matches, and a polished digital adaptation with solid visuals and a wide range of achievements. The asynchronous multiplayer is a standout for casual play with friends. However, recurring downsides include monetization and content access concerns (DLCs/locked content), online/multiplayer stability and login problems, cross-device compatibility and loading issues (especially Chromebook support and new-device expansions), and perceptions of the base game being shallow or imbalanced. Addressing these issues could raise satisfaction and broaden appeal.
Pros
  • Deep strategy with multiple win conditions and high replayability.
  • Short, quick matches with excellent asynchronous multiplayer for casual play.
  • Polished digital adaptation with good visuals and user experience.
  • Wide range of achievements and variety of win scenarios.
  • Easy to learn and pick up.
Cons
  • Monetization and content access issues, including locked DLC and paywall concerns.
  • Online/multiplayer stability and login problems (e.g., Facebook login not working, online play breaking after updates).
  • Cross-device compatibility and loading issues (e.g., Chromebook support dropped; expansions not loading on new devices).
  • Base game feels shallow or under-balanced, risking boredom.

No longer supported on my brand new Chromebook. Worked fine on my old one. Edit: Works fine on my phone, but I miss playing it on a large screen.
