Candamir: The First Settlers

Players portray early settlers exploring an untamed island to gather resources, encounter animals and resolve adventurous events. Movement follows a dedicated exploration mechanic as characters search for raw materials and natural goods that can be processed or traded back at the settlement. Successful encounters grant resources and experience points that improve a character’s traits (strength, smarts, charisma), unlocking better abilities for subsequent expeditions. In the village, players use resources to brew items and construct buildings, which expand the settlement and earn victory points. Exploration and character development drive play, with trading and player interaction influencing progress.

    Candamir, el primer poblado de Catán. Un juego de aventuras y recolección de recursos, somos personajes que debemos ayudar a los principales habitantes del poblado a desarrollarlo y ayudarles a convertirlo en una ciudad. El tablero es como un zoom sobre un tablero de Catán, el poblado se encuentra adyacente a dos hexágonos de ovejas y uno de madera, un poco más allá tenemos otro de piedra. En el tablero hay una serie de recursos que debemos recolectar y para ello debemos pasar una serie de pruebas. El primero que consiga entregar 10 PV gana. Un juego familiar divertido y con momentos épicos.
