Description
Orchestra drops you and up to three friends into the chaotic, glamorous world of running a 19th‑century concert hall, and it’s a blast. Designed by Rogério Lourenço and João Toledo (2026), the game blends classic worker placement with a splash of music‑themed strategy – you’ll juggle different types of workers, snap up contracts for star soloists, and fight for influence in key performance zones. As the night goes on you’ll collect sets of instruments, upgrade your repertoire on the tech track, and score sweet end‑game bonuses for pulling off the perfect program. The rules sit at a comfortable “normal” complexity, so seasoned gamers will feel right at home, and the 90‑to‑180‑minute runtime lets you dive deep without getting bored. Whether you love the drama of area majority, the thrill of set collection, or just the idea of conducting a rival‑filled symphony of moves, Orchestra turns every session into a lively, slightly chaotic concert you’ll want to encore.
