Offrandes / Offerings

 

Each player represents a city in ancient Greece. You want to achieve most appreciation from the gods by being the one offering most sacrifices to them, in the full knowledge that not all gods are equally powerful. For a sacrifice you must acquire animals from the peasants, prepare them with the help of the water carrier and the flower carrier and take them to the altars with the help of the temple guardians. At the start of the game you choose three characters and then play in rounds comprised of four phases: Auction – you auction2 of 7 characters, corruption – you can corrupt on opposing character, sacrifice – you sacrifice 1 to 5 animals on one kind, once per round and using the characters you acquired, and finally income – each player receives 10 Drachmen, you keep money from earlier rounds but can never own more than 25 Drachmen. When a sacrifice has been offered at each altar when a player has reached 100 points of appreciation the game ends and the altar points are scored.
