Garum
Description
Garum was a fermented fish sauce used as a condiment in the old ages; its manufacture and export was an element of prosperity and perhaps an impetus for the Roman penetration of Lusitanian and Hispanian coastal regions.
Garum from today’s Portugal and Spain is highly prized in Rome and has now inspired a versatile strategy board game for the whole family, ages 8 and up, that plays 2 to 4 players. Garum is a tile-laying game, which plays in about 30 minutes, it is language-independent and features endless replayability, due to its board system, that ensures no two games are alike.
In Garum, each player represents a master in the preparation of a specific type of fish sauce and receives a set of 16 Cetarian Tiles; each one has 4 spaces filled by 4 colors in different proportions, though the color that the player is defending is the predominant one.
The game's goal is to play your Cetarian Tiles strategically, to get a considerable number of your own color symbols in selected rows or columns - the greater the number, the higher the reward! If you score the most points you are the winner!
