Yaxha
Description
In Yaxha, you’re competing to build the most beautiful Mayan temple amongst all the players. Try to get the best sets of stones from the markets and to place them in the best way to win the game. Be careful, your opponents are likely to steal the stones you yearn for…
Yaxha is a game with simple rules, but which requires strategy and a good sense of timing!
How to play:
The game is played over 10 rounds. Each round has two stages: Buying resources and Building your Temple.
At each turn, sets of 3 stone blocks become available at the markets (stone blocks come in 5 different colors).
All the players choose simultaneously the set they would like to get from the markets.
If a player is alone at the market, they will get the corresponding set.
If several players are competing for the same set, turn order tiles will define who picks a set first.
(Turn order tiles are swapped between players in case of a tie, after collecting the stones.)
Then, all the players assemble their temple with the purchased stones to make the longest color series. There are few constraints to build the most beautiful Mayan pyramid and win the game. Place the stones wisely to get the most victory points and don’t forget the common objectives, as they can make all the difference. So look out for the most yellow, the most eclectic or the longest series of all colors.
