Here’s The Deal with Tzolk’in: The Mayan Calendar. If you want to know more about the rules of the game, watch my How to Play Tzolk’in: The Mayan Calendar video.
HI! It’s Ryan from Nights Around a Table, and this is Tzolk’in, a worker placement/worker removal game for 2-4 players. Here’s the deal.
You and your friends play rival tribes during the heyday of Mayan civilization. As the Tzolk’in, the great Mayan calendar, wears on, you’ll compete to gather resources and please the gods to earn victory points and win the game. When the central Tzolk’in gear finishes one full revolution, the game is over, and you tally up the points to see who’s won.
On your turn, you can do one of two things: you can either place one or more workers on a small gear, or pull one or more workers off a small gear. That’s it! Place or pull. The sections around the gears give you different rewards. At the end of every round, the main Tzolk’in gear rotates, which, in turn, rotates the smaller gears one notch. Generally speaking, the longer your worker stays on a gear, the more valuable the rewards become. But if your worker rides a gear for too long, you may get bumped off and go home empty-handed.
Well, does it sound interesting?
