Description
In The Heavens of Olympus, you're one of several unknown gods tasked with building a universe for Zeus to admire from Mount Olympus. You have just 5 days to prove your worth, and the god who performs the best will be rewarded with a boost in status and admission to the esteemed Mount Olympus. The game is played over 5 rounds, each representing a day, with three phases: morning, afternoon, and evening. As you progress through the days, you'll select actions to create and place planets, aiming to earn Prestige Points by dominating orbits and building constellations. At the end of each day, Zeus reviews your work, and scoring occurs. With 60 minutes of playtime, 3 to 5 players can compete to become the most prestigious god, making for a fun and engaging experience that's easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games.
