Dragonarium

Players build a private hatchery by drafting and placing tiles that represent one or two land types, creating connected domains across a personal grid. Each round players select a tile, place it to expand their dragonarium, then choose one of the placed land types to activate an element token (fire, water, wind, or light) that circulates around the player board. As element tokens pass rows or columns they provide energy to hatch dragons; when a dragon hatches a stacking tile is placed on top, changing the underlying land’s element and altering future connections. The game focuses on spatial planning, timing of activations, and resource management across twelve rounds to interweave domains and hatch dragons.
