Description
In Raiatea, you'll join a secret Polynesian religious society, working together to build colossal To'o statues and win the favor of the god Oro. As a member of the Arioi, you'll take turns leading the group to different action locations, gathering resources and planning your next moves. But it's not just about collecting materials - you'll also need to call upon the gods for help in ceremony rounds, carefully planning your rituals and sacrificing mana to accomplish your goals. With 3 to 5 players competing to become the new High Priest, Raiatea is a game of strategy and skill that's easy to learn but challenging to master. Over the course of 60 to 120 minutes, you'll need to balance your actions, manage your resources, and make the most of the gods' help to collect the most victory points and claim the top spot.
