That is movement of the Sun, which is in the beginning in the middle of player’s territory. Value beneath this round track will become interesting, if anyone chooses third action, that is allowed by tokens. Building provides many different rewards, sometimes even improves sun movement as it circulates around orbit. Player immediately gets as many stones as he has temples and places them on moon on his board. He must always pay as much raw material (any) as he has completed temples in his possession. While city building has clearly given price in box next to its illustration, temple demands increases with every built one under players color. Both building actions are easily accomplished by placing a wooden house to a position on one of the boards. It is possible to attach a new piece of land (or bonus token) on player’s planet, build a temple on existing land or construct a building on town board. They place it under Earth board, where are three color-coded positions for them. But they may always take only those tokens, that lie at the bottom of their column. Other tokens and pieces create piles nearby and need to be ready to join the game.Īt the beginning of each round, players will alternate four times in choice of action tile from available platelets and immediately apply their effect. Players then reveal six from each of them into columns. They are split according to their back side to land, temple and buildings construction and sun movement. In the middle of the table, all join forces to create three drawing piles of actions. Remaining resource tokens create piles by type, alwais in limited numbers, and also one additional pile with randomly mixed types (height based on number of players). Just below this sunlight counter, each player puts one landscape piece of his choice and places appropriate material token on it. This is place, where Sun actually shines. Each player gets two tokens of Sun: one is placed on the first field of the Sun track and second directly on designated place on Earth. Each has two sides – inactive night and active day, when the sun is full of energy and only then are they able to provide their services to players.Īt the beginning of the game, each of your opponents gets his pair of large boards – one circular with planet and the other one with his own city. Eight characters also inseparably belong to the game and they can be hired and then activated. Each depicts exactly twelve same buildings, which are players able to build during a game and earn points or other income. Resources have also corresponding wooden tokens, but there are also transparent red stones of magic and white houses also made of wood.īut we must not forget town board, which again will belong to every player. Thus, we have directly told you about other two components – a hexagonal resources (bamboo, obsidian, etc.) and action tokens, which allow players to control the sun, build buildings or place new territories. Rounded numbered route of the sun turns around the top and moon is lurking in the bottom, sharing its place with placeholders for action tokens. These are ruled by large sphere representing Earth with hexagonal seats for resource land tiles. Most of them have cardboard nature and their list begins with large boards for players. Inside hot box with a view of the sun rising in the distant land of waterfalls, there is quite a pile of components. Life was given to it by illustrations of Dennis Lohausen and all these men and women created together a very hot and sunny product. It comes from stable of companies Hans im Glück and Z-Man Games, created by Martin Kallenborn and Matthias Prinz. They all could start worshiping new board game Helios instead of their God. Here, at the highest point I’ve ever seen and I adore it. It is also the only hiding around, which is main reason, why I came here. On a high plateau in the shadow of the mountains, this is a place, where we can finally be close to Ahau god. Men and women with the same knowledge and skills as I have.īeing first here can be an advantage, but also not. But I know, that there are others coming in my footsteps. I am now very well-poised to become chief priest. These natives have never seen an eclipse and one must grasp this advantage for himself. As i was holding sun disk between palms of my hands, I gradually extinguished it, until it quite disappeared. They have never seen before something like this.
