OBJECTIVE OF TIGRIS & EUPHRATES: The objective of Tigris & Euphrates is to better develop your civilization in the four domains of development.

NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2 to 4

MATERIALS:

  • The game board
  • 153 “civilisation” tiles
  • 8 “catastrophe” tiles
  • 1 “junction” tile
  • 6 wooden monuments each made from two coloured parts
  • 16 leaders (4 from each of the four dynasties)
  • 140 “victory point” cubes of each of the four colours (20 small ones worth 1 and 15 large ones worth 5)
  • 10 “treasure” white wooden cubes
  • 4 player screens
  • 1 bag

TYPE OF GAME: tile placement game

AUDIENCE: teen, adult

OVERVIEW

Each player must develop his or her civilisation in four distinct areas: politics, religion, agriculture and trade. To do this, players will use their leaders on the map, create and expand kingdoms, build monuments and resolve conflicts, earning victory points in all four areas. The winner will be the one who has developed a balanced civilization without weakness in any area.

SETUP

Place a temple tile and a treasure on each of the ten winged sphinx squares. Put all the remaining civilization tiles in the bag.  Victory points, monuments and the junction tile are placed next to the game board. Each player:

  • chooses a dynasty, represented by a symbol, takes the four leaders bearing this symbol and places them, along with two catastrophe tiles, in front of his screen.
  • draws six civilisation tiles from the bag and places them behind his screen, hidden from other players.

Unused leaders, screens and catastrophe tiles are removed from the game.

GAMEPLAY

Kingdoms and territories

The term “kingdom” has a precise meaning in this game. During the game, leaders and civilization tiles are placed face up on the map. Adjacent civilisation tiles (joined at one side, not at an angle) form a territory. A territory in which there is at least one leader is a kingdom. There can be several leaders from the same player or from different players in the same kingdom. A kingdom grows by receiving more civilisation tiles or leaders; it can be united with another kingdom or, sometimes, be divided. As long as all the leaders in a kingdom are of different colours, there is no trouble, but as soon as two leaders of the same colour are present in the same kingdom, conflict occurs.  크레이지슬롯

Course of a turn

The game is played in clockwise order. Each player can, in turn, perform up to two actions, in the order of their choice. It is allowed to perform the same action twice. The actions are:

  • Placing or moving a leader
  • Placing a civilization tile
  • Placing a catastrophe tile
  • Exchanging up to six civilisation tiles
1. Placing or moving a leader

Each player has four leaders: a King (black), a Priest (red), a Farmer (blue) and a Merchant (green). You can only place and move your own leaders. You can place a leader on the map, but also move or even take back a leader already on the map. A leader can only be placed on an empty space. A leader must always be placed on a square adjacent to a temple. A leader may not be placed on a river, nor on a square that connects two kingdoms. It can happen that during the game, some temple tiles are turned over or removed from the game. When a leader no longer has any adjacent temple, he is immediately taken back by his owner.

Important: Placing a leader does not earn any victory points… but it is impossible to earn any victory points if you do not have any leaders on the map.

2. Placing a civilization tile

A civilisation tile is always taken from behind its screen and placed on an empty square on the game board. Blue tiles can only be placed on rivers, other tiles can be placed anywhere except on rivers.

When a civilisation tile is placed in a kingdom in which there is a leader of the same colour, the owner of this leader receives a victory point of that colour. If there is no leader of the colour of the placed tile in the kingdom, but there is a king (black leader), then the owner of this king receives the victory point. Otherwise no victory point is awarded. The same applies if the tile is not placed in a kingdom, or if it joins two kingdoms. Victory points are placed by each player behind his screen. A placed civilization tile can no longer be moved.

3. Placing a catastrophe tile
