Cyclades : New Asmodee #BoardGames

Posted in Board Games, Posterous on March 30th, 2010 by The Staff @ CAVGames

 

ASMCYC01
Cyclades
$59.99 SRP2-5 Players
Ages 13+
60 Minutes

In this latest collaboration between Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc, players must buy the favor of the Gods in their race to be the first player to build two cities in the Ancient Greek island group known as the Cyclades.

Victory requires respect for all the Gods – players cannot afford to sacrifice to only one God, but must pay homage to each of five Gods in turn. Each turn, the players bid for the favors of the Gods, as only one player can have the favor of each God per turn – and each player is also limited to the favor of a single God per turn.

Ares allows the movement of player armies and the building of Fortresses.
Poseidon allows players to move their navies and build Ports.
Zeus allows his followers to hire priests and build temples.
Athena provides her worshipers with philosophers and universities.
Apollo increases the income of his worshippers.

The action cards form the core of the game. For each round, the cards are shuffled and placed in a row. Each player in turn order takes the leftmost card from the row, until there are no more cards left. Instead of the leftmost card, players can also buy a different card by paying with victory points.

At the end of each round, players score points according to the sizes of their largest research networks. At the end of the game, extra points are given out based on whether research stations are connected to the center of the game board.

As in Dixit each round one player takes a role of Storyteller who chooses one card from his hand, tells, sings or does something that in his opinion is associated with the played card. Other players choose their own cards. Then cards are shuffled and revealed, and players vote which card was played by Storyteller, and score points according to their guesses.

Player who has the most points wins the game.

Alchemy! Dominion Expansion from Rio

Posted in Board Games, Posterous on February 25th, 2010 by The Staff @ CAVGames
Scheduled for Release in May

RIO418
Dominion: Alchemy
SRP: $29.95

 

This is the 3rd addition to Dominion. It adds new Kingdom cards to Dominion and as it is an expansion, you will need Dominion, or Dominion: Intrigue to play the game.

Number of players: 2-4
Age of players: 8+
Length: 20-30 minutes

There are strange things going on in your basement laboratories. They keep calling up for more barrels of quicksilver, or bits of your hair. Well it’s all in the name of progress. They’re looking for a way to turn lead into gold, or at least into something better than lead. That lead had just been too good of a bargain to pass up; you didn’t think, where will I put all this lead, what am I going to do with this lead anyway. Well that will all be sorted out. They’re also looking for a universal solvent. If they manage that one, you will take whatever they use to hold it in and build a castle out of it. A castle that can’t be dissolved! Now that’s progress.

Dominion: Alchemy is an expansion, and can’t be played by itself; to play with it, you need Dominion, or a standalone expansion to Dominion (Dominion: Intrigue). Those provide the Basic cards you need to play (Treasure, Victory, and Curse cards), as well as the full rules for setup and gameplay. Dominion: Alchemy can also be combined with any other Dominion expansions you have.
