How to play Hegemony: Lead Your Class to Victory

The objective

Earn the most victory points after five rounds and endgame scoring. The Working Class, Middle Class, Capitalist Class and State share an economy but have different scoring incentives. Wages, prices, taxes and public services connect the four positions.

How a turn works

The round moves through preparation, actions, production, elections and scoring. Companies need labour, workers need goods and services, and policies change the terms of those exchanges. Five main actions per player make timing valuable even when a plan is affordable in cash.

The ending and this tutorial

Working Class and Middle Class development uses Prosperity, the Capitalist Class develops Capital and Wealth, and the State must attend to Legitimacy and its agenda. The full four-player route demonstrates all five rounds under official rulebook v1.2.
