How it plays

Santorini is a two-player strategy game about building a village on a Greek island. Each player has two workers. On your turn you move one worker one space, then build one level on a space next to it.

You win by moving a worker up onto the third level of a building. Players can cap a building with a dome to block it. God cards give each player a special power that bends the rules, which adds a lot of variety. It's simple to learn but deep.
