Dolmen

2015 · Abstract Strategy

Dolmen

Druids compete to build stone circles and megalithic tombs across the board. Players move three druids, leaving stones behind and gaining majorities within completed circles. The winning player places a dolmen with a hidden value in each controlled circle, creating stacks across the board. The game ends when a player runs out of stones or dolmens, and scoring depends on each dolmen’s position in its stack and the size of the surrounding circle.
