  Show your hosting prowess and treat your favorite Surrealist artists and writers to an excellent dinner party! But this might be trickier than you’d imagine. Keep your guests happy by serving the food they desire, managing drama between them, and sending them home at the right time. On your turn, bring new guests to the party, serve food and drink, or have guests socialize with their neighbors at the table. Each artist also has a unique habit, so pay careful attention to who is sitting next to whom! Of course you want to make all the guests you’ve invited happy, but if you can arrange for your opponents’ guests to start a little drama, that’s okay too! It is living and ceasing to live that are imaginary solutions. Existence is elsewhere… – André Breton.

In Cubist, you and your opponents are architects competing to build a grand and inspiring new Modern Art Museum, including interior sculptures or installations. Aptly enough, your building materials are cubes, or more precisely, dice! On each turn, you roll two dice and place them in your studio as raw materials for your cubist sculptures. From there, you position these dice to complete commissioned installations for the Museum. Dice with identical numbers can be stacked on top of one another to give your sculpture elevation and grandeur. Dice with adjacent numbers go next to one another to construct unconventional footprints of modernism. You can press your luck by committing to a particular risky commission hoping that no one else will complete it first, or play it safe by locking up your dice for later use.  You can also use your dice to enlist masters of modern art like Juan Gris, Franz Marc, and Olga Rozanova. Each installation you complete allows you to contribute dice to the building of the Museum itself. You will have to sculpt cleverly but quickly to get the new Museum named after you!  Components: 81 Dice 1 museum board 4 Individual Studio Boards 9 Museum Cards 25 Artist Cards 23 Installation Cards Rulebook
