Fulfill contracts by gathering necessary resources, invest in building grand cathedrals, win the favor of noble families, and engage in major fairs where your main business thrives. You can also invite notable people into your houses to gain prestige and become the most famous merchant of the era. Tiletum is a thrilling dice management game. Dice serve a dual purpose: getting resources and performing actions. Each round, roll a set number of dice. On your turn, pick a die to get resources equal to its value and then take the associated action. The action's power is inversely related to the die's value - fewer resources mean more powerful actions and vice versa.
