In Amerigo, the players help Amerigo Vespucci on his journey to find new land. Players explore the islands of South America, secure trading routes, and build settlements.

The actions open to players are determined through the use of a specialized cube tower, which has appeared in the Queen titles Im Zeichen des Kreuzes and Wallenstein. At the beginning of the game, this tower is seeded with action cubes, which come in seven colors, with each color matching a particular type of action. During the game players will drop additional action cubes into the tower – but some of these cubes may get stuck in the floors of the tower while other cubes already in the tower are knocked free. Thus, players need to play both tactically – taking advantage of the actions currently available in the best way possible – and strategically – using their knowledge of which actions do what to play well during the game.

The game board is made up of nine, twelve or sixteen tiles, depending on the number of players. Players sail their ships through the landscape created for this game, landing on islands to plan and build settlements, which then supply resources and allow the player to obtain victory points. Players might want to invest in cannons to defend themselves from pirates roaming the waters or acquire progress tokens to gain special advantages.
