Product description ■ This is a beautiful two person game set in the city of Paris lit by street lamps.
In the first half and the second half, the players aim to build up the Paris town on the board and earn higher scores.
First, the first half of the game will be held to get the placement of the paving stone tiles which will be the base of the city and the building tiles which will be the final point source.
Because the flagstone tiles are divided into your own color, your opponent's color, neutral color, and the street lamp mass, and building tiles can only be placed in your own color or neutral color to score in the second half, you need to position the tiles for the second half.
or building tile acquisition.
Building tiles are the most important source of points, so you should actively acquire buildings that are easy to deploy or that are considered strategically important.
However, since you cannot deploy flagstone tiles with the acquired building tiles, it is difficult to decide which to do for each turn.
When all the flagstone tiles are placed on the board, it is the second half.
You place the building tiles in a square on the board made of flagstone tiles.
The building tiles are positioned against the streetlight, so the key is how both players control the neutral colored mass where the building tiles can be placed.
It goes without saying that playing the first half is important because the placement of the flagstone tiles and the acquired building tiles are the base of the second half, but in the second half, you can perform special actions that are prepared, so you may be able to change the situation depending on the selection and timing.
Also, some special actions provide special bonus points, so not only the basic placement, but also the building and tile placement for that bonus may determine the outcome.
It is a very simple and easy to play game, but it has a different play feeling while linking the first half and the second half.
The difficulty of choosing by the numbers in the first half, the tension in the second half, etc., through the game, it is a content that makes gamers groan.
There are a number of special actions available in the second half, and since they don't all appear in a single game, the replay is enhanced.
The excellent atmosphere is also attractive, as seen in the beautiful colored oil painting artwork and the special action card is a picture postcard cut from a part of Paris.
