  1. 6.5 out of 10

    It's a simple game that I believe just came back into print (?). You each get a card that shows a pattern of squares and height. Each round, there's a pool of dice rolled - in orange, green, black and clear. Each represents a 'material' in a building - wood, recycled material (?), stone and glass. What you have to do on your turn is pick a die from the pool and place it behind your screen on this pattern - to build a building, you see? The pattern is a 'blue print' - hence the name of the game. On your turn you need to pick the right material and place it smartly - so you can score well. Wood scores by having lots of adjacent dice. Recycle is score by having lots in your building. Glass it scored by the die face. And stone by how high you've stacked it. So there's that decision plus trying to complete your blueprint. Points are awarded after placing 6 dice. That completes the round. The player who scores the highest gets 3 points, second place gets 2. There's bonus points for completing your blue print and for using certain combinations of dice (like 4 of a kind in your building). After I think 3 rounds, the game is over - highest score wins. So easy peasy game play. Dice pool is the central idea. I actually thought it was fine for what it was. A good game to play in between games - a filler with some quick fun. It'd be good for yahtzee players too - pretty easy to explain of course and not intimidating at all.

  2. 7 out of 10

    I love the drafting of dice, the different things you can go for, and the rapid pace at which the game is played. I like that building good buildings is not necessarily the goal, but to reach "artistic" objectives is what scores more points. I also enjoy trying to figure out which objectives my opponents are going for based on their draws, and then either changing mine, or going full steam if I know I can beat them on the tie-breaker.

  3. Homemade with colored dices. The cards of the blueprints i just draw them all. All in sleeves. Not a gorgeous version, but cool to play this interesting game. Update: official copy. German
