PLAYED FOR YOU

Stone Age

Mit Stil zum Ziel

In Stone Age players re-live that pre-historic period; you fell wood, break stones and pan for gold; you trade goods, expand the village and reach new stages of civilization. Each round comprises entering persons to the board, interacting with those persons and then feeding those persons. Different locations can accept different numbers of persons. Actions of persons are either acquiring resources, acquiring more food, receiving tools, acquiring civilization cards and buildings. At the end of the game civilization cards are scored.

Thus we have labored to build up the village; prosperity has arrived and we have discovered adornment. Simple teeth were turned into combs, bracelets and rings. Soon traders arrive, offer their goods and set up trading posts. With this expansion you can now play Stone Age with five players, use jewelry to acquire buildings and cards and you can also trade jewelry for other things. But you can only trade at the trader’s outpost when the trade marker has left the 0 position. Jewelry can be bought from the trader or collected when hunting, as regards to mechanism jewelry is neither food nor resource. The trader himself is considered a new location as regards to game mechanics; you can only place 2 persons of a player there. The new space for civilization cards can be used by exactly one person.

These are some of the changes introduced by trader and jewelry, they have enriched the game with new aspects, have enhanced possibilities and at the same time somewhat sped up the game and despite all this not changed the game after all! Bravo!
