The publishing house "Niza Games" announced that it will release the tabletop eurogame "Gaudí" by game designer Dani Garcia in Russia. With its help, users will be able to immerse themselves in a world where art defies the laws of gravity and stone turns into a dream.
In this game, designed for 1–4 players, participants will go through the life and work of Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí, earning victory points in three main areas that inspired his work: nature, Catalonia, and religion.
To succeed, gamers need to maintain a balance between all three areas — only the two lowest scores out of three will be counted in the final tally. Points are earned by playing cards and placing "Trencadís" tiles on players' personal boards.
"Trencadís" is a Catalan word meaning "many small broken pieces." During the game, players will get acquainted with some of these characteristic decorative elements depicted on the cards and will be able to experience the pleasure of creating their own trencadís patterns on their board.
The game consists of three rounds. In each round, players take turns moving around the central rondel on the game board, carefully choosing where to stop to perform important actions: draw cards and get various types of trencadís tiles. Such resources are used to play cards and advance along the chimney tracks on personal boards.
A round ends when all players have completed a full circle around the rondel. After the third round, the player with the most victory points, thanks to the strongest and most balanced combination of results, wins.
In retail, "Gaudí" will cost about 3500 rubles (but it will, of course, be cheaper to buy it on pre-order).
