  1. 7.5 out of 10

    A little persnickity in the scoring. I warn you, read the rules twice!! Interesting tableau set collection. Could use some helper aids but second time around you will be fine.

  2. 6 out of 10

    So far, I've only played this once. I had some issues with the rulebook, and I found aspects of the gameplay and the scoring to be unintuitive. So our play was a bit rough, but I have faith in both the co-designers from playing their other games, leading me to think that now that I have a better handle on how it works I'll have a more enjoyable experience going forward.

  3. 7.5 out of 10

    Doesn't make sense that the setup doesn't scale the cards per player count. Still fun though; just doesn't inspire confidence that it was developed enough.

In Cartagena, Colombia, the doors speak. Not with words, but with the grandiose knockers that adorn them. In Spanish colonial times, the knockers announced your job and your social status with the design and detail. Lions, lizards, sea creatures, and hands proclaimed the homes’ occupants as soldiers, nobles, fishermen, and clergy.

Aldabas is a puzzley tableau-builder in which you you seek to fill your neighborhood with the most influential citizens. On each turn, players will take actions to build their neighborhood or increase their wealth. Clever placement will unlock bonuses, but only if you build in the right way.

Those who keep the best company (and the fullest coffers) will surely be held in highest regard.
