Etariya: Septachroma (2022)

About this game

The Septachroma Stones of Genesis Players are 2 Gods of Light & Dark, fighting over control of the mystic island of Etariya. Players take turns guiding the 7 tribes into regions of "Eternal Day" or "Eternal Night" and try to lay claim 4 tribes for themselves to control the island.  This is a lightweight 2 Player Abstract Game with beautiful components and 3 variants for advanced play. The black & white areas of the island are created with transparent plastic overlays to provide a different layout in every game. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 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.
