Description
DESCRIPTION OF THE BOARD GAME TERRA MYSTICA
14 races with different abilities and habitat preferences compete for territory. The increase in territory means new opportunities for construction and development of buildings in cities. One of the important abilities of each race is terramorphing - the ability to change the terrain into a habitable race. Take the lead of one of the races and make it the most powerful in the lands of Terra Mystica.
MYSTIC LANDS
Your expansion in Terra Mystica has begun. In six rounds, you will have to lead your race to the top. You have a large selection of actions in your arsenal that will require the availability of resources. If you are familiar with such games as Chronicles, Settlers, then this mechanic will be familiar to you - the round lasts until all players save; players take turns performing one action as long as there are enough resources.
Each race, in addition to belonging to the area, has a special property. It most often determines the strategy for the entire game.
BONUSES UNDER THE BUILDINGS
The main feature of this game is resource management, which is thought out to the smallest detail and is perfectly balanced. At the beginning of the game, each player places on his tablet all the buildings available to him in the game. Buildings are placed by type (Houses, Trading Houses, Fortress, Temple, Sanctuary) in the appropriate zones. In the course of the game, you will build buildings, which will cause it to be taken from the tablet and placed on the field, and vice versa - to remove the building from the playing field and place it on your tablet. Each building that comes from a personal tablet opens a new bonus. Most often, this is a replenishment of resources in a certain phase, but there are also more significant bonuses. If the building is returned to the tablet, it closes the previously opened bonus accordingly.
ACTIONS OF THE PLAYERS
Each player has 8 basic actions at his disposal, which can be performed in any order and number, the main thing is that there are enough resources. In addition, there are actions from race bonuses or received during construction. Actions are enough to implement any strategy, but Terra Mystica would not have become so popular and original if... If not originality with magic.
BOWL OF STRENGTH
Each player has three bowls of power, which are linked cyclically. The already used power from the third bowl falls into the first bowl. The third bowl begins to fill only when the power from the first bowl has flowed into the second. The power can only be used from the third bowl and will activate one of six additional actions. At the same time, the action becomes unavailable in the current round.
Power movement is achieved through open slots on the player's tablet, bonus tiles, and blessings. But the main event that causes the transfer of power is the construction of buildings by your opponents in the immediate vicinity of you. If this happens, then we consider the level of your buildings near the opponent's new building and make a decision: we move the power in the bowls in an amount equal to the level of your buildings and lose points one less than the level of the buildings or refuse to move.
STRUGGLE FOR POINTS
The winner of the game will be the one who scores the most points. We will receive points during six rounds and at the end of the game. During the game, we will receive points for almost everything, especially if we perform temporary tasks for the current round. At the end, we will receive points for the advantage in the territory and advancement on the scales of blessing.
WHO IS THE GAME FOR?
The game is undoubtedly suitable for experienced players who like games with zero randomness. A large number of available actions leads to a small downtime in the first moves, but by the third round the game is lively. The rules seem big and complicated, but this is not so - everything in the game is logical and simple, so you can try the game as part of a family, but only with adult children and if you find 2-2.5 hours of combined time.
