Description

In Rossio, you'll compete to pave a historic Portuguese square with iconic calçada tiles, a task that requires strategic planning and clever use of helper cards. With easy-to-learn rules, this game is accessible to players of all skill levels, and its short playtime of 30 to 45 minutes makes it perfect for a quick gaming session. As you recruit cards and build tiles, you'll need to balance your points and coins, making tough decisions about when to play cards face-up or face-down. As the game progresses, the square takes shape, and patterns emerge, making certain cards more valuable. With high interaction between players and interesting decisions every turn, Rossio is a game that's all about timing. Will you recruit a card face-up to score points, or play it face-down to collect coins? The player with the most points wins, but with money tight and opportunities fleeting, every move counts in this engaging and challenging game.
