  1. 8 out of 10

    This is a super well made game and I think the unique theme makes it stand out amongst the huge amount of Euros released. Instant backer on upcoming Kickstarter.

  2. 9 out of 10

    Beautiful production and very unique Euro. Placing workers makes spaces for other players less expensive, which means you must be very careful with placement! I also like how the game has progress through the unlocking of the 9 different demons. As you unlock new demons new spaces are opened and old spaces are removed and replaced. I don't think I've seen anything quite like this. Absolutely love it. EDIT: One of the biggest problems with the game is the end game trigger condition. In order for the game to end someone must either collect 4 pacts or there must be less than or equal pacts than the number of players. Due to the fact that pacts turn off very powerful demonic powers and that pacts rely on unlocking certain expensive spaces, this GREATLY extends the game time. If a player refuses to unlock all of their workers on the pact spaces, which may make sense if they have a pact card which rewards them for less workers, the game slows to an absolute crawl. The game very badly needs another end game trigger condition. In our longest game we played for 8 hours.

Goetia: Nine Kings of Solomon is a worker placement, resource management game where each players try to contact, conjure and worship goetic demons. The game is focusing on the 9 demon kings that appear in the scriptures Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis.

The game is played in clockwise turn order. Each turn the players places one of their 3 followers on a modular board. When placing a worker the players get the depicted resource(s).

Players can get more workers from the outskirts by paying all visible resources from that specific row or column. If you buy a worker early in a round the cost is high. If you buy a worker later the cost is low – all depending on how you and your opponents are playing.

Players can also pay one resource in order to send their workers to contact demons. By contacting demons players are awarded Demonic Attention. When a Demon has run out of attention, a Demon is conjured and players can now pay more resources to worship said Demon in order to get special abilities (Demonic Powers, Artifacts, Treasures).

Demonic Powers are worth Worship Points (WP). The player with the most most coins and WP from demonic abilities and pacts is the winner.
When all demonic powers have been awarded to the players new special areas are uncovered where players can earn more Worship Points by exchanging cubes for Attention, or making Pacts with Demons.

Game ends when a player has 4 active Pacts with a Demon, or when a certain number of Pacts have been acquired by all players.
