Maori (2009)

About this game

In Maori, players explore the islands of Polynesia. On a turn, the player moves their explorer ship, and then, optionally, may discover a tile. Once one player has filled their board everyone else gets one more turn, and then the game ends. Players now score the tiles on their display. Palms, huts, shells, and boats on the tiles influence scoring. The player with the most points wins.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• 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.
