INTRO
Wizkids is republishing 🏰 "Princes of Florence." Step into the lavish world of 👑 Renaissance Italy 🇮🇹.
In this euro board game where you will play as a noble, you will use pawns, polyomino tiles, and cards. Lead your dynasty, build your principality, inspire great works of prestige, and compete for fame in this masterpiece designed for 1 to 5 players that plays in about 20 minutes per player.
GAMEPLAY
The game spans over seven action-packed rounds, each with two exciting phases that keep you on the edge of your seat 🥳
Auction Phase:
Experience nail-biting bidding wars as players compete to claim valuable objects like landscapes, jesters, builders, and bonus cards. Strategic bidding and outmaneuvering opponents are key to securing one object per player 🎯
Action Phase:
After the Auction Phase, players take center stage, performing up to two actions in clockwise order. This presents thrilling opportunities to purchase freedoms, acquire artisans, obtain bonus cards, or complete works. 💼 Effective cash management and 💡 thoughtful actions greatly impact your success.
Additional Features:
Princes of Florence includes rule modifications for two players ensuring a seamless experience. The game also features a solo mode. 📖 The detailed instruction manual with examples addresses all your anticipated questions, making learning and mastering the game a joy.
HIGHLIGHTS
🌟 The art is really pretty. The layout of the cards makes the complexity of the game easy to digest. 🧩 I like that you start with four profession cards to keep three, so you have the availability to decide what you’d like to aim for. 🎯 The fact that there are some overlaps on which buildings, landscapes, and freedoms you want to focus on. 🏰 The scoring is very exciting. 💰 Auctioning while balancing what to build and where to build it adds a level of complexity that makes me want to play this game over and over again 🔄
Also, the player screen gives you extra secrecy to keep your Florins 💸 money hidden.
Even though this is a euro-game, the game doesn’t feel like a solitaire adventure. When scoring, you can decide whether to exchange fame for cash, keeping you wanting to be the higher scorer, so you can get the extra score and ensure you complete work during each round.
CONCLUSION
👑 If you're a fan of euro games and enjoy the challenge of playing with polyomino tiles, Princes of Florence is a must-have addition to your collection. 🧩 It offers splendid balance and the exhilarating thrill of competing for prestige. 🌟 Embrace the Renaissance splendor and embark on this captivating journey! 🏰 However, keep in mind that this game is more suited for seasoned players, so be cautious about introducing it to newcomers too soon. 😊 Can’t wait to try "The Muse and the Princess" expansion 🎉🎭
