Description

Prepare Your Place of Power!

In a high tower, an Alchemist prepares potions, using vials filled with otherworldly fluids. In a sacred grove, a Druid grinds herbs for a mystical ritual. In the catacombs, a Necromancer summons a bone dragon... Welcome to the world of Res Arcana!

In it, Life, Death, Elan, Calm, and Gold are the essences that fuel the art of magic. Choose your mage, gather essences, craft unique artifacts, and use them to summon dragons, conquer places of power, and achieve victory!

A game typically lasts 4-6 rounds. In each round, players do these steps:

Collect essences: performs any Collect abilities, and may take essences from components.

Do actions, 1 per turn, clockwise from the First Player: place an artifact, claim a monument or Place of Power, discard a card for 1 Gold or any 2 other essences, use a power on a straightened component, or pass: exchange magic items and draw 1 card. Play continues until all players have passed.

Pass procedure: If you are first to pass, take the First Player token, swap your magic item for a different magic item, draw 1 card.

Check victory points (10+ VPs). If no one has won: straighten all turned components, and begin the next round.

Belle découverte
Une très grande rejouabilité avec de grandes décisions à prendre dès le début de la partie. Tout prend son sens après une première partie de joué. Le rangement des ressources facilite le déroulement de la partie. L'impact de nos décisions sur les autres joueurs est bien pensé.

Parfait
Excellent jeu, chaque parties sont différentes et il est tres intéressant d'essayer de gagner avec les cartes qu'on a été assigné. Je ne recommande pas la variante "draft" puisque cela va à l'encontre du design du jeu.

J'ai été agréablement surpris par ce jeu! Même si le thème me semblait peu original initialement, le concepteur a réussi à faire ressortir la mécanique de 'Engine Builder' à son meilleur.

C'est rapide à installer/ranger, les règles sont simples à comprendre et le jeu est aussi plaisant à deux, trois ou quatre joueurs.

Les combinaisons variées de cartes (personnages, artefacts, monuments, etc.) font que chaque partie nous force à utiliser des stratégies différentes.

J'ai déjà hâte d'acheter des expansions!

One of my favorite games! Tons of mechanisms boiled down to their essentials. I will say that you really should play with the drafting variant, as it adds a lot of player agency.

On nouveau prefere
Tres tres content de rajouter se jeux a notre collection. Je prefere les boites un peu plus rigide que celle ci , mais le reste est parfait. Les cartes , lespieces de bois et les pieces de carton sont de tres bonne qualite et c'est bien sa l'important. L'insert pour les piece est parfaitpour ameliorer le gameplay. Une belle surprise de cette annee , un jeux simple pleins de replayabilite . Semble tres bien balance et strategique. Bien content de cet achat.

Res Arcana
Très bon jeux pour les groupes ou les familles qui désirent des jeux légés mais qui ont également une grande profondeur. Les règles sont simple et le déroulement du jeux est très rapide. Pour les amateur de jeux a deux joueur, celui-ci en est un d'excelence. Il se joue très bien avec 3 ou 4 joueur, par contre, a deux, le jeux devient un grand duel et est beaucoup plus ''snappy''.

Deck building-ish with Engine building
Res Arcana has done something special: having a tiny, little bit of deckbuilding with an engine builder.

You have a couple of options when it comes time to passing your turn an choosing a new action you will be able to use on your next turn.
This element makes things interesting. And even if you d'ont have the action you want this turn, you might be able to get it next turn,

Great fun!
