Village

Das Leben in diesem Dorf ist hart! Aber es bietet seinen Bewohnern viel Raum zur Entfaltung. Manch einer fühlt sich zum Glaubensbruder berufen. Ein anderer strebt eine Karriere in der Ratsstube an. Ein Dritter sucht sein Glück in der Ferne  ...

Jeder von euch lenkt die Geschicke einer Familie und kann diese auf vielen Wegen zu Ruhm und Ehre führen. Doch eines solltet ihr nie vergessen: Die Zeit lässt sich nicht aufhalten, und mit ihr gehen die Menschen. Diejenigen, die nach ihrem Tod in der Dorfchronik verewigt werden, können den Ruhm eurer Familien mehren und euch dem Sieg ein ganzes Stück näher bringen ...

Village ist ein Spiel voller taktischer Herausforderungen. Ein pfiffiger Aktionsmechanismus sorgt dafür, dass die Spielzüge kurz und trotzdem voller kniffliger Entscheidungen bleiben. Besonders ist auch der Umgang mit dem Thema Tod. Als natürlicher Teil des Lebens ist er ein wiederkehrender Gast im Dorf und verlangt von euch vor allem eins: kluges Zeitmanagement.

Life in the village is hard – but life here also allows the inhabitants to grow and prosper as they please. One villager might want to become a friar. Another might feel ambitious and strive for a career in public office. A third one might want to seek his luck in distant lands.

Each player will take the reins of a family and have them find fame and glory in many different ways. There is one thing you must not forget, however: Time will not stop for anyone and with time people will vanish. Those who will find themselves immortalized in the village chronicles will bring honor to their family and be one step closer to victory.

Village is a game full of tactical challenges. A smart and unique new action mechanism is responsible for keeping turns short and yet still tactically rich and full of difficult decisions. Also unique is the way this game deals with the delicate subject of death; as a natural and perpetual part of life in the village, thoughts of death will keep you focused on smart time-management.

Paraphrased from Opinionated Gamer's review:

Each player’s turn consists of taking a cube and then taking the action of the area they just took the cube from. The board has multiple different zones with specific attributes, a market, a travel zone, a crafting zone, a church, and a council house. Many of these offer multiple options, so even if you take a cube from the crafting area, you can get an ox, a horse, a cart, a plow, a scroll, or convert wheat to gold. Each zone is seeded with cubes of four colors plus black cubes which serve as curses, there are lots of turns per round. Some areas offer short-term scoring, others offer long-term scoring, and still others offer only end-game scoring. The round ends when there are no cubes at any location. The game ends when either the village chronicle or the anonymous graveyard is full.
