Bohemian Villages (2016)

About this game

Who will collect the most money in the Bohemian villages? As a merchant, you want to have as many stores as possible. As an innkeeper, you can earn money only if there are enough people in the village. As a miller or factory owner, cooperation is key. And to become rich as mayor, you need the support of the entire village. Every decision you make might also depend on the roll of the dice. Bohemian Villages is a tactical dice-rolling game that allows you to claim different types of buildings in a shared village and use the powers of those buildings. In the end, the player who evaluates their options best and pursues the correct strategy will be the lucky winner.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.9/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
