Description

New Edition with new First Player tile

Introduced by the Moors, azulejos (originally white and blue ceramic tiles) were fully embraced by the Portuguese when their king Manuel I, on a visit to the Alhambra palace in Southern Spain, was mesmerized by the stunning beauty of the Moorish decorative tiles. The king, awestruck by the interior beauty of the Alhambra, immediately ordered that his own palace in Portugal be decorated with similar wall tiles. As a tile-laying artist, you have been challenged to embellish the walls of the Royal Palace of Evora.

In the game Azul, players take turns drafting colored tiles from suppliers to their player board. Later in the round, players score points based on how they’ve placed their tiles to decorate the palace. Extra points are scored for specific patterns and completing sets; wasted supplies harm the player’s score. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

  1. Geoff Byers

    A very safe middle of the road game, some competition, but not too much, some interaction but not too much, nice production, simple gameplay. I don’t mind Azul at all, but it is very much cardboard Valium, and was apparently designed to be completely inoffensive. Mildly enjoyable, but for people new to the hobby, probably shockingly good.
