Stonemaier Games has announced the March trade release of its Mensa-award winning board game Euphoria: Build a Better Dystopia.

Like its first game Viticulture (see "'Tuscany' Expansion, 'Viticulture' Shipping to Trade"), Stonemaier Games funded production of the game through Kickstarter. The game raised $309,495 from 4,765 backers ($64.95/backer) in June 2013.  Stonemaier Games President and Co-Founder Jamey Stegmaier shared that the first print run was 9,000 copies, and this second edition printing of 11,000 copies will be made available to distributors worldwide.

Euphoria is a worker-placement game set in a steampunk dystopia, designed by Jamey Stegmaier and Alan Stone.  Players lead a team of workers and recruits, represented by custom dice and cards.  Players generate commodities, forge alliances, dig tunnels to infiltrate the opposition, collect artifacts, and fulfill secret agendas.

The box contains a game board, 24 custom steampunk dice, 48 recruit cards, 36 artifact cards, 18 market tiles, 6 ethical dilemma cards, 45 wood resource tokens, 72 wood commodity tokens, 3 wood miners, 4 wood progress tokens, 6 wood morale tokens, 6 wood knowledge tokens, 60 wood authority tokens, 6 multiplier markers, 6 allegiance tokens and a rule book.  The game is for 2-6 players, ages 13 and up, and plays in an hour.  MSRP is $70.00.
