Description
In Kalypso, you'll embark on a sci-fi adventure where you build a futuristic city on the ocean floor, all while trying to mitigate the effects of climate change. Designed by Gilles Turbide, this game is perfect for 1 to 4 players who are familiar with board games, as the rules are of normal complexity. As you play, you'll draft and place tiles to create a thriving underwater metropolis, using a combination of drafting, simultaneous action selection, and tile placement to outsmart the rising ocean levels. With a playtime of 45 to 60 minutes, you'll need to work quickly to build your city and complete contracts, all while dealing with events and chaining together patterns to earn end game bonuses. With its unique blend of city building, science fiction, and environmental themes, Kalypso offers a fun and challenging experience that's perfect for fans of puzzle games and cooperative play.
