Description

Lata (“tin can” in English) is the name of the raw material for the containers in which the fish is packed, and it also turned out to be a popular designation for the product. In this game, players manage local canning companies in the 1950s and produce and sell the famous canned sardines or canned mackerel, the two main canned fish in the first decades of the industry, before the appearance of the very popular tuna.

The game takes place over six rounds. In each round, players buy a batch of fish, tomato or olive oil, which they then can use in their factory. These products will then be sold to markets. This operation will result in money that will be used to buy scorecards and increase the factory’s production capacity.

Lata is the second game in the “Quinas Collection”, following the success of Café, the first game in the line.
