SiliconVania WZK 87572

In SiliconVania, players bid on building tiles and multi-use specialists that provide either one-time bonuses, or end-of-game scoring. Players take the building tiles they win, and place them in their 4×4 city grids, juggling different scoring opportunities, and collecting vampire and pet meeples that are looking for places to live!

Each round you will:

• Bid on a pair of building tiles to add to your grid. Be careful, once theyre down, they are very hard to move!
• Bid a Specialist card for its ability, and to get a new specialist card. Cards with stronger bids have weaker abilities, and vice versa!
• Commit a Specialist card for its scoring condition, earning points, but revealing to your opponents which kinds of buildings you really need!

The game ends after 8 rounds, when everyones city grid will be full. Youll get points for having each of the 7 building types, a wide network of blood banks, and proper housing for the vampire meeples your specialists bring to town. The vampires also want to make sure all this technological advancement doesnt destroy the biodiversity of their home, so youll get points for having a variety of animals and animal meeples on your tiles. Your specialists also provide special scoring conditions, like the Engineers look for columns with four different building types, or the Nobles who want blood banks adjacent to mausoleums! Players will also be competing to develop innovations, find artifacts, and build castles and train stations to make their cities even more attractive to the rising vampire population.

Combining bidding, tile-laying, hand management, resource management and more, with smooth gameplay, Siliconvania is one youll want to keep playing for the rest of your endless, immortal lives!
