Product Information
Travel back to the founding of Mesoamerica's greatest city and be part of its history. Design the foundations of a pre - Columbian civilization, featuring buildings, temples, and a grand central pyramid. Find ideal spots for production buildings and great temples, and build the mighty pyramid overlooking your city. Compete with friends to create the best design of Teotihuacan in this strategy game. Over three to four rounds, place action disks on the main board to form towers, use bonuses strategically, and construct temples, resource buildings, and the central pyramid. Balance resource generation and usage as good city - board locations get scarcer. Outwit opponents with an innovative action system. When the eclipse arrives, all designs are assessed, and the highest - scoring player becomes an architect among the Founders of Teotihuacan! This stand - alone game shares the ancient Teotihuacan setting with Teotihuacan: City of Gods, but its events occur earlier in history. On your turn, either perform an action by placing 1 - 3 action disks on an action space with at least one disk on the main board and carry out the corresponding action, or pass. Each action space can hold up to 4 action disks. Your player board has four districts. Buildings and temples go in the two districts near your architect, and pyramid tiles in the six pyramid squares nearby. Your action strength equals the total number of disks on an action space. After an action, move your architect clockwise to end your turn, changing its reach for the next turn. The round ends when all players pass. At the game's end, players get extra victory points for how well their districts complement their pyramid.
To play the Founders of Teotihuacan board game, first gather your friends. The game spans three to four rounds. On your turn, you have two options: perform an action or pass. To perform an action, place 1 to 3 of your action disks on an action space on the main board that already has at least one disk. This forms a stack. Each action space can hold a maximum of 4 disks. After placing the disks, carry out the corresponding action. Remember, your action strength is based on the total number of disks on that action space. After performing an action, move your architect clockwise on your player board to end your turn. This will change where your architect can reach on the next turn. The round ends when all players pass. When placing buildings and temples, put them in the two districts closest to your architect on your player board. Pyramid tiles should go in the six pyramid squares near your architect. Try to balance generating resources and using them as it gets harder to find good spots on your city board as the game progresses. At the end of the game, additional victory points are given based on how well your districts match up with your pyramid. Keep the game components clean and dry to maintain them. Avoid bending or damaging the action disks and player boards. Have fun competing with your friends to become one of the great Founders of Teotihuacan!
