El Soneto
Players assume the roles of novice poets competing in a public literary contest in Golden Age Madrid. Over three rounds they draft letter cards from a shared display and form words that must obey the grammatical constraints for that round. Words score in multiple ways: points for letters used, bonus favor if a word begins with certain requested letters, recognition for using allowed literary devices, and advancement on a rhyme track when words rhyme. Collected patrons and members of the literati provide endgame prestige bonuses, and the player with the most prestige wins the competition.
