Product Information
Board Game Geek Rating: 6.41, Avg Player Rating: 7.24. Suitable for 1 to 5 players and published in 2017. This is the Kickstarter Deluxe edition of Villages of Valeria. It includes all from the standard game, plus a Kickstarter Bonus Pack with 4 Adventurer Cards, 8 Events Card, 1 Reference Card, game expansion Pack #1: Guild Halls, game expansion Pack #2: Monuments and more. Note: paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise.
Set in the world of Valeria, it's a thrilling village - building card game. You'll establish resources, construct buildings, and attract adventurers to your village, aiming to be crowned the next capitol city.
Each turn, you choose an action from a list. Other players can follow but get fewer rewards. Actions include Tax (get 1 Gold and draw 1 card, followers draw 1 card), Harvest (draw 3 cards, followers draw 1 card), Develop (discard 1 card to add a Resource, followers discard 2 cards), Build (add a building and draw a card, followers add a building but no card draw), Recruit (pay 1 Gold to add an Adventurer, followers pay 2 Gold).
Building cards have two uses: pay resources to add as a building and gain benefits and VP, or develop as a Resource under your Castle card. When building, use your developed resources or pay 1 Gold to use another player's.
The game ends when a player builds or recruits 10 buildings/Adventurers.
We're excited to support campaigns to bring you games like Villages of Valeria Core Game. A good portion of your spending will go towards backing new Kickstarter games. If you have questions, contact The Game Steward.
How to use: First, gather 1 to 5 players. Everyone starts getting into the world of Valeria. Take turns to pick an action like Tax, Harvest, Develop, Build, or Recruit. When choosing an action, remember other players can follow but with fewer rewards. Use building cards in two ways as described in the game. You can build using your own resources or borrow from others by paying 1 Gold.
Note: This is the Kickstarter Deluxe edition, but paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless mentioned. The game ends when a player reaches 10 buildings or adventurers.
Maintenance advice: Keep the cards in a dry and cool place. You can use card sleeves to protect them from wear and tear. If the cards get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth.
