Description

In the world of Helios, you'll take on the role of a high priest, harnessing the power of the sun to build and expand your civilization. With 2 to 4 players, you'll compete to construct temples, grow cities, and accumulate wealth, all within a 60-minute playtime. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to those familiar with board games, and with no necessary in-game text, language won't be a barrier to fun. As you gather glass manastones, the game's currency, you'll be able to acquire people, increase your score, and more. But be warned: the more you build, the more expensive it gets. You'll need to strategically manage your resources to succeed. With its unique blend of action points, tile placement, and variable phase order, Helios offers a thrilling experience that will keep you coming back for more.
