What is Lisboa
Lisboa is a game about the reconstruction of Lisboa after the great earthquake of 1755.
On November 1, 1755, Lisbon suffered an earthquake of an estimated magnitude of 8.5–9.0, followed by a tsunami and three days of fires. The city was almost totally destroyed. The Marques of Pombal — Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo — was the then Minister of Foreign Affairs and the King put him in charge of the reconstruction of Lisbon. The Marques of Pombal gathered a team of engineers and architects and you, the players, are members of the nobility; members who will use your influence in the reconstruction and business development of the new city. You will work with the architects to build Lisbon anew, with the Marquis to develop commerce and with the King to open all the buildings, but the true reason you do all this is not for greatness or fame or even fortune, but for the most important thing of all in that time: wigs.
Lisboa is played on a real map of downtown Lisbon. During the planning of the downtown project, the type of business permitted in each street was previously determined. The economic motor is driven by the wealth of the royal treasure and this treasure is controlled by player actions during the game, making each game a totally different experience. The game ends after a fixed number of rounds and whoever gathers the most wigs by the end of the game wins.
Lisboa is played in rounds. Each round, all players play one turn. They may place one card on their display or replace one card from this display. During the game, players schedule hearings to get character favors, such as commerce, construction, and openings. The iconic buildings score the stores and stores provide income to the players. Players need to manage influence, construction licenses, store permits, church power, workers and money, with the workers' cost being dependent on the prestige of the players.

Juego ambientado en la reconstrucción de lisboa allá por el año 1600 y pico, después de una semana muy mala en la que sufrió terremoto, innundaciones e incendios. Es un juego dirigido por cartas, que tienen varios usos, según cómo se utilicen en el tablero personal o en el tablero general. Tiene muchos detalles y es bastante denso de explicar. Cuesta un poco en la primera partida, pero una vez que entiendes y asimilas las mecánicas es un juegazo como la copa de un pino, reservado, eso sí, para jugones. Manténgase fuera del alcance de los no jugones.. o te odiarán ya sólo con la explicación.
Dedicado por Lacerda y con una carta promo firmada
first impresion was 8 then 8.5 and now is a solid 9 good euro game way thematic, with stategy and tactic aproach (taking decree soon or later). Different monster for 2,3,4 players.. in 2 players you can go high resource and plan to score properly, game is more likely to finish when someone complete the 4 sets of rubs... in 4 players you need to be more tactic using overall oportunities the game has less turns and is more likely to finish when the draw decks are empty..
LISBOA in capital letter because it deserves. This is one of the crown jewels of my collection. At the beginning I was a littler bit reluctant to play, but after playing 2 rounds I realised It wasn't as hard as I was expecting. The game is great, great in all sensens, difficult but no impossible, strategically inteligent, challenging, thought-provoking and stimulant. The mechanics blow me away: all the plety possibilities to play very turn, the way of maximize the cards. The setup is not so heavy than I thought. What's more, the art, which is based on 17th century portuguse tiles, is stagge
The brazilian edition is not the finest but it stands out. Great game though, hand in hand with Gallerist and Kanban.
King's Favorite.
Comprado a Edu en Wallapop por 70€.
