4 Gods
**4 Gods is a dynamic game of strategy and planning, where players become gods in a fierce competition to shape and dominate an expanding world.** Each player starts the game with double-sided tiles representing different landscapes and must place them wisely on the board. The aim is to develop the world by placing one tile at a time, connecting them strategically to maximize points at the end. The placement of the tiles must take into account not only adjacencies, but also the types of landscapes that combine, which brings an extra layer of challenge and tactics. A unique feature of 4 Gods is that players can also discard tiles, allowing for creative management of their hand and the chance to claim valuable tiles that have already been discarded. At any time, you can choose a god and start sending prophets into that landscape, ensuring your dominance over it. Interaction between players is intense. By claiming cities, opportunities arise to block and interfere with your opponents' strategies. And at the end of the game, the player who manages to accumulate the most points through cities and control of landscapes will be consecrated as the supreme god. Get ready for a spiritual battle full of creativity and strategy in 4 Gods, where every move can change the fate of the world you're building!Artists: Ismaƫl Pommaz;
