In Biblios, you play the part of an abbot at the head of a monastery during the Middle Ages. Seeking to own the most illustrious library, you compete with other abbots to obtain highly treasured holy books & manuscripts. You attain your goal by acquiring the resources necessary for decorative lettering, hiring the best copyists & reproducing the most precious works. You have a limited amount of gold at your disposal to this end. Furthermore, to fulfill your purpose, you must win the bishops trust & thereby avoid the churchs wrath.
