Exquisite balance is interesting

It is a game competing VP (victory point) by building a building and expanding its territory, developing their civilization, attacking and destroying the village of barbarians. In order to build a building you need resources (resources) and gold coins (money), which are not automatically available for each turn, not to mention them, even with your hand, so keep your hand You need to throw away it as a dedication to the gods and get resources, coins, additional hands etc in return. The reward of this "offering" is unexpectedly large, but after the middle stage it is possible to create a card combo which can be generated by building the same type of building, and by building five types of building evenly, a temple , You will be able to build a large VP at the end of the game). Depending on how you use it, these powers become so powerful that it is not easy enough to play with a tribute center without thinking and winning. In other words, even if you allow other players early in the opening, there is enough possibility of reversal depending on the effect of card combo and temple after midfield. Therefore, it is difficult to become a development that one's hands can not be attached if it runs alone, its balance is exquisite. You can play without delaying even to the end even with a playing time longer than 90 minutes. In addition, since the tiles of the topography are recombined at random every time, they do not develop like the same each time, and the replayability is also high. <2015/10/19 Categories> In the previous review I wrote that "There is little element of bargaining with other players," but it was a misunderstanding because my play was insufficient. When playing several times and understanding the tricks, unexpected bargaining is a hot game. For example, when someone besieged a barbarian village, a strategy such as moving his army at exquisite timing, attacking barbarians at once and destroying the VP and stealing the VP is established, and depending on the effect of the constructed temple There are some VPs which can be obtained depending on how much terrain you take, how much you take, so it is effective in some cases to take the terrain you want other players want to get in and get in the way. The more interesting it gets, the more you get to know those points. Therefore, delete one sentence of "little element of bargaining" and change it from ★ 4 to ★ 5.

Suitable for any number of people from 2 to 4 people.

It is a hybrid game that makes use of the card effect and multiplies elements that compete for territory by placing pieces on the board. What can be done in the round 1. Use the resources (wheat, clay, wood, stone, money) to build coma on the board and gain card effect. 2. Dedicate your hand to God, receive the benefits of God, and replenish your hand. And the basic is simple as it is 2 choices. There are 6 types of cards for each color of God, and features are 1. In the case of building, if it is the same color, the effect will be demonstrated from cards built beforehand and you will receive continuous benefits. If you build in a good order, it will be a chain combo (?) Like "Get 3 resources with 3 money" → "Sell 3 resources with 4 gold". 2. In the case of dedication, you will be accepted according to the number of hands that threw away the benefits of God. "You get the favorite resources for the number of dedicated votes." There is a barbarian territory on the board and depriving all of this VP is one of the game termination conditions, but the basic and building can only be built in the area where it already exists or in the neighboring area. Moreover, since it can not be built in the place where the opponent's building exists, there is also an element that competes with the region at the military (facility) which is a movable building, and entanglement among the players is also strong. Because there are elements of card games, it is interesting for 2 to 4 people, no matter how many people play. However, the number of cards is fixed to 96 pieces of 16 colors of 6 colors (number of resources, board varies depending on the number of people), each player can build up to 5 colors of 1 color, so game characteristics will change depending on the number of people. Two people battle: straight game. There is a high possibility that a card can be freely drawn, and the territory is also easy to dominate widely, so bargaining while deciding the combo well. Three-player warfare: If the cards related to resources are biased, there is a possibility that resources to be exhausted may be generated, so there is a possibility that players substituting with money will come out. As the difference in whether you can withdraw the necessary cards earlier will be greater, it seems that cards and draws are more important for dedication etc. than for two players. Also competing for the territory will be more complicated as choosing which one to press will suffer depending on the situation. Personally it is the best number of people with slight differences. Four people battle: Obviously the number of cards of each color is insufficient with respect to the number of people. If four people try to build the largest five, 20 colors per color are needed. So it is necessary to play with deductive subtraction using dedication, supposing that a building of color that can not be built can occur as expected. The possibility of dispersing resources is also high, but the conflict of the territory becomes more complicated. Since the deck will eventually disappear, you may not be able to hit a valid hand at the turn, so it is better to move so that you can meet the closing condition earlier. Otherwise, there is a possibility that it will end up in the final stage. We also recommend applying the variant rules of "Construction Wild Card" described in the rule book. In the final stage, it will improve the difficulty of the 4 player match. In any case, territorial dispute also appeals. It is a very pleasant, interesting game when the card combo is decided. Depending on the number of people, if you can change the way of play corresponding, you will become more fun. Since the replayability is also very high, such as map change, card pulling, etc., it is a game I'd like to recommend to those who repeat with 2 to 4 people.
