Description
Get ready to travel back in time to the era of the Maya and help build their thriving civilization. In this easy-to-learn game, you'll be competing with 2 to 4 other players to gain influence over the cities rising around the temples on the Yucatán peninsula. The key to power lies in supplying the residents with food, and you'll need to strategically plant crops like corn, squash, potatoes, and peppers to increase your control. As you play, you'll face tough choices and need to keep a close eye on your opponents in this tactical tile-laying game. With a playtime of just 30 to 45 minutes, Maya is the perfect game for a fun and challenging evening with friends. Designed by Trevor Benjamin and Brett J. Gilbert, this 2019 release is a great introduction to territory building games, and its simple rules make it accessible to new players.
