What is Canvas: Deluxe Edition

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. Each card contains a piece of artwork as well as a set of icons used during scoring. Icons will be revealed or hidden based on the way players choose to layer the cards making for an exciting puzzle. 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.

Me encanta cuando los juegos implementan tan bien la temática y el concepto a lo que es el gameplay. No deja de ser un abstracto de hacer puntos con quebraderos de cabeza pero la forma en la que lo hace es tan chula que ni siquiera se pasa mal

Juego tipo puzzle con una producción muy bonita y cuidada. Tiene muchísimas cartas conceptuales y muchas cartas diferentes para puntuar, que lo pueden hacer más difícil o sencillo. Interesante también para jugar con los más peques. Para jugadores que busquen algo más se les quedará muy corto....

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

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.
