What players say
“Great little big game. One of the few Kickstarters that did not emphasis style over substance. Not for every group as the sheer number of possibilities can be overwhelming. Might be a 9 or even 10 with more plays.”

“Delivers a tight and fun game in a roughly one-hour time frame”

“The kind of game you want to play again”

“Pushing little boats and little containers around is hugely satisfying”
BGG community
At its heart I/E is a role selection game with a passive and active economy driven by player decisions. You have the power to gain over 170 unique powers by exporting shipments of goods, specializing into a varied tech tree, and building your own game engine that will be completely unique to each play.
Once your shipments enter the open sea, someone can trigger an Import action, where everyone will hold a silent auction to buy your containers and either allocate them as a future end game investment or an immediate boost to their available actions for specific roles.
