When Elsa von Frühlingsfeld presented her invention to King Frederik Augustus II of Saxony, people thought it was trickery. She used the recently isolated element Uranium to heat up a jar of water and used the resulting steam to power an engine that kept the Uranium active via a process she called “atomization.” Her device, the Nucleum, ushered in a new era of energy and prosperity over the next decades. Saxony went from a minor regional power to the hub of European science and engineering. Now, a generation later, factories are still hungry for more power, demanding bigger and more Nucleums to be built, more Uranium imported from the nearby country of Bohemia, and railways and power lines built across the country to carry the tamed power of the atoms to Saxony’s great cities. Inventors, engineers, and industrialists flock to the Saxon court, vying to be the leader in this new industrial revolution.

Nucleum is a heavy euro board game in which players take role of industrialists trying to succeed during the economic and technological boom of 19th-century Saxony, fueled by the invention and spread of the Nucleum (a nuclear reactor).

Players earn victory points by developing their networks, building and powering urban buildings, securing contracts, and meeting milestones (randomized endgame goals). Each player also gets unique asymmetric technologies, giving them special powers when unlocked. Gameplay is continuous; players take turns one after another with no rounds or phases.

Patron Set mini expansion brings Patron Cards into the game.

Each Patron Card belongs to the specific Experiment board. In the base game those Experiments are distinguished by letters only. Now, on every Patron card you can see the occupation of each Patron associated with the specific Experiment along with their description and image depicting them. From now on, Experiments will be referred to using names of their Patrons introduced by this mini expansion:

Experiment A -> Banker
Experiment B -> Captain of Industry
Experiment C -> Mistress Inventor
Experiment D -> Junior Minister
Experiment E -> Councilor
Experiment F -> Madame Engineer

 Folded Space Insert FS-NCLM 

Official full colour insert compatible with Nucleum®.

The design provides both efficient storage and improved game play. Many of the trays can be utilised during the game, and they greatly aid set-up and clear-away times. The rules and boards act as a lid on top of the trays.

The full colour print really brings the trays to life, tying them in with the theme of the game and making it easier to see which components go where.
