What is Maharaja: The Game of Palace Building in India
A board game for two to five players with elements of area control and simultaneous action selection. During the game, the players take different roles and travel from city to city in India. Their architects build palaces and houses for the Maharadja.
Of course, building a palace is expensive. Therefore, it is important to earn enough money in the cities. The first player who builds seven palaces is the winner.
Players choose their actions simultaneously, but reveal and resolve them in turn. Actions include generating money, building houses or palaces, manipulating the Maharaja's movements, and choosing new architects (each architect has a unique power, but the more powerful ones come further down the turn order).
At the end of each round, the Maharaja scores the city he is currently in based on the number of buildings, and players receive money accordingly. He then moves to a new city.

Comprado en la bsk a RubioSA en julio 2010 por 12+7€ Consiste en ser el primero en construir siete palacios en diversas ciudades indias. Para ello hay que viajar y construir con el arquitecto, lo que cuesta un dinero que se obtiene gracias a las visitas del rajá. En cada turno, el rajá visita una ciudad y los jugadores recibirán dinero según el grado de presencia que tengan en la ciudad. Además, los jugadores llevan un personaje que les otorgan ciertas ventajas. Es un juego de bastante cálculo y planificación. Entretenido. De 3 a 5 jugadores.

[b]Pimera partida[/b] (7/10) Euro con aroma añejo de los de antes. Ya no se diseñan euros con este perfil, donde pocas reglas dan profundidad de juego y de desarrollo. Gran euro de los de siempre que tal y como pauta el mercado, está en peligro de exintinción. [b]Nota:[/b] Leido el manual de la nueva versión del Maharajá (2021) para calibrar las diferencias de la reimplementación y calibar si merece la pena las mejoras respecto este. Se siente que ha sido endulzado para captar un publico más causal (y puede que lo consiga) pero sacrificando profundidad y exigencia. Me quedo con este.
