Origins: First Builders (engl.)

Beschreibung

Origins: First Builders (engl.) is a strategy game for 1 to 4 players aged 14+ with a playing time of 60-120 minutes. Players act as archons guiding their cities through building, culture, science, and warfare, competing to leave the greatest mark on ancient history by managing resources, advancing on temple tracks, and engaging in strategic district closures.

They came to this planet and chose you. Uplifting your people, they promised prosperity and shared the wisdom and resources to build your cities sky-high. They taught you culture, science, and warfare, offering knowledge to all who seek it. As an Archon, you must guide your citizens to victory under the watchful eyes of the Builders—mysterious benefactors from beyond the skies. In Origins: First Builders, you lead a population of freemen, influencing city development by constructing buildings and monuments, climbing the three great zodiac temples, and engaging in an arms race. Your goal is to leave the greatest mark on mankind’s ancient history. You begin with a simple city composed of two building tiles: the Agora and the Palace. As the game progresses, you expand your city by adding new building tiles, each with unique abilities that activate both when added and when districts are closed. Your position on the military track affects your rewards during attacks and your chance to become first player. The game is played over several rounds, each ending when all players have passed. If no end condition is met, a new round begins. On your turn, choose one action:

• Visit an encounter site with workers to gain resources, acquire additional citizen or speaker dice, advance on the zodiac temple tracks (potentially earning zodiac cards), and progress or attack along the military track.
• Close a district to score victory points and possibly gold by matching a district card’s building pattern, trigger additional bonuses from active buildings, and gain endgame points based on the citizen die used to close the district.
• Build a tower level to increase your endgame scoring, linked to tower heights and matching color dice when closing districts.
• Grow your population.
• Pass.

The game ends at the round’s conclusion when one or more of these conditions occur: only three or fewer colors of tower disks remain in stock; no gold is left on any district card; no suitable citizen die can be added to the citizen offer; or a player has moved all three zodiac disks to the top space on each temple track. The temple area includes three tracks: the sea, forest, and mountain temples. You score points from your two lowest-valued temples. After tallying all points, the player with the most victory points wins.
