Viva Catrina

Players place tiles to build a Día de los Muertos village under the watchful eye of La Catrina. Each turn, players choose from available tiles and add them to the shared layout to create paths, connect butterflies and visitors, and assemble pedestals that attract chimeras. Balloon tiles and chimera objectives create a light race element while spatial planning matters: tiles can open routes or block future connections, so efficient network construction is important. Scoring comes from completed connections, attracted creatures, and successful balloon flights as the village grows over the course of the game.
