Maya (2019)

About this game

Go back to the time of the Maya and help them build their civilization. On the Yucatán peninsula new cities arise around the temples. Large cities give power which you can gain by supplying the residents with food. Plant corn, squash, potatoes and peppers to increase your influence on the cities. An easy to play, tactical tile laying game in which you always face difficult choices and have to keep an eye on your opponents! —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
