### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best game of the three Century games
*by Y***D on February 13, 2020*

This is my favorite of the three Century games, but it is also a lot of fun to combine with either or both of the other two. It keeps Century fun as you change up which version to play.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are a fan of the Century games you will LOVE this one.
*by R***D on July 27, 2019*

Best in the series. Overall Century Spice is the easiest to learn but A New World is simply on another level. DEFINITELY A MUST BUY for those who love fun and strategic games.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Almost as good as Spice Road
*by S***N on February 6, 2020*

A New World is a great finish to the Century trilogy and is just as much fun to play as Spice Road (the 1st), so if you like the first one then you will like this one.
