We are proud and happy to host the incredible Tzolk'in: the Mayan Calendar, a game from Daniele Tascini & Simone Luciani, on Board Game Arena.There's no doubt every gamers heard about Tzolk'in in the past 12 months. Why? Because of its very appropriate theme for 2012 year, and of course because of its great and original game material: "The Game With the Spinning Wheels".
The wheels system makes this game particularly beautiful and pleasant to play. But above all, it totally renews worker placement games.
Explanation: at your turn, you must choose between:
- placing one or more workers on the first available places on wheels (which usually correspond to less powerful actions), OR
- taking back any number of your workers, and realize actions corresponding to their respective positions.
As you can imagine, to win you need to place/take back workers with the right timing all along the 26 turns of the game: should I let this worker on the wheel to access a more powerful action or should I do it immediately?
This adaptation has been realized through a cooperation between BGA team and Romain Fromi who did an amazing work using BGA Studio: thank you & congratulations! Romain already realized another game (a more simple one) that you will discover on September.
Board Game Arena would like to send a big "Thank you" to the whole Czech Games Edition team for this game and for helping us to bring this adaptation on BGA!
