What is Mexica
Mexica plots the development of the city of Tenochtitlan on an island in Lake Texcoco. Players attempt to partition it into districts, place buildings, and construct canals.
Districts are formed by completely surrounding areas of the island with water and then placing a District marker. The player who founds a district scores points immediately.
Canals and Lake Texcoco act as a quick method of moving throughout the city. Players erect bridges and move from one bridge to the next, which costs 1 action point regardless of the distance. They must also erect buildings. This costs action points, the exact number being dependent upon the building's size.
In the scoring phases of the game, players score points (El Grande style) based upon their dominance in a District. In the 4 player game, players with the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd most buildings score decreasing numbers of points.

What the community says about Mexica
Just one game, difficult to judge the possibilities it offers. Played with the new edition, piramids are really cool. But the Spanish rules booklet is awful. I did not even read it completely and found several grammar mistakes that should be avoided at all cost in a professional product. The game itself uses Action Point mechanics to create enclosures to claim and to build your piramids, in order to get points using majorities. And at the same time, you need to move your meeple around using the channels you actually create to create the enclosures. Very interactive, you can block the oth
