Dance of Muses (2019)

About this game

Are you ready to become the masters of the nine Muses? In Dance of Muses you will guide the Muses to perform the perfect dance and fulfill the will of Apollo. Every time a Muse performs a dance step, the value of their die increases. Use Muse skills to change the values of adjacent dice! The game ends as soon as the die on a Muse reaches the value 6. The die on each Muse who has executed the will of Apollo (keeping its die on the indicated value) automatically becomes a 6. Compare your dice with other players and find out who did the best dance! Dance Of Muses is a 2-4 abstract strategy game, designed by Marco Baglioni and David Trambusti and illustrated by Sara "Sbilemi" Marino. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.5/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
