Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
The simultaneous action selection mechanic lets players secretly choose their actions. After they are revealed, the actions resolve following the rule-set of the game.

After 1 play I am intrigued by the decision process. What resources? What do I need to do during the round and ensuing rounds (if any). The 3 of everything in this game might be described as 3D Chess. After 3 full plays I am raising my rating to a 10 reason being that the game is unique in my experience. I am a fan of Mesoamerican themed games. but this one provides "crunchy" decisions with a under 60 minute game time. Pyramids or Sacrifice? So far, pyramids may be better.

Classic euro-style game by Fabio Lopiano (Calimala, Merv) with fantastic escalation in a short playing time. You only play five cards over the course of the game but you will achieve a lot at the end of the game. Each player has a 3x3 grid for action selection which will fill up with tiles that will provide more and more bonus resources. You collect resources and build houses to develop temples and climb up the sacrifice track for victory points. Gold can also be spend for special powers tiles. + Drafting mechanic: each player draft a card, the remaining card will determine the scoring bonus for the upcoming round. # Good solo mode. # Quick to play. # No "scaling" of points for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place: I like it more if you get points in relation to each other (distance).
