What is Canvas
In Canvas, you play as a painter competing in an art competition. Players will collect art cards, layering 3 of them together to create their own unique Painting.

Paintings are scored based on a set of Scoring cards which will change each game. Once players have created and scored 3 paintings the game ends.
On your turn you may take an Art card or make a painting. Art cards are selected from a row of cards in the center of play. Each of these cards has a cost associated with their position. After selecting an Art card you must pay its cost by placing an Inspiration token on each of the cards to its left. If you do not have enough Inspiration tokens, you may not select that card. Any tokens on the card you have selected are kept for future turns. The far left card costs no Inspiration tokens to take.
If you have three or more Art cards you may choose to make a painting. Select 3 of your art cards, arrange them in any order and then score them by comparing the visible icons on your painting to the Scoring conditions.
Once all players have made 3 paintings the game ends.

The game is really simple but the components do it for me. It looks really good on any table and the art exhibit concept can be really cool for first timers. Also you can hang the gamebox on a wall and it looks like a freaking painting.
Очень приятный сет-коллекшн с наложением полупрозрачных карточек. Семейный, быстрый, красивый.
A colorful and beautiful game. Very simple and straight to the point.
In this game the least you worry about is the art, which was the hook for getting it. In the end you just need to mix and match symbols. I'd play it if someone suggests it.
A game doesn't need to be extremely complex to be a good one. Canvas makes it very well. The most I like of this is the simplicity and the high creativity it has on its design If you are an amateur painter or something, you are going to love it. You will find card collection and the overlapping system, really interesting when doing combos I also think that a 2nd edition could include more details like the fact of describing the symbol characters, ie. triangle stands for texture, square for technique and so on. I know they are already explained in the rulebook, but one almost doesn't notice i
Un juego sencillo para sacarlo a cualquier jugador, precioso y maravillosos modos en solitario
