What is Paddy

In Paddy, you transform the landscape by creating terraces of rice paddies in the mountains of southeast Asia. On each turn, you decide what type of tile to add to the paddy and whether to place it in the day or night half. With each new tile, the paddy grows and adapts to the flow of water, preparing the ground for your species to thrive.

While you collaborate with others to sculpt a landscape of terraces and water channels, you also compete to secure the best pastures for your species. With each decision, you influence the growth of the paddy and the irrigation of its fields. The winner will be whoever has the most points at the end of four cycles.

Paddy is the fourth installment in the "Natural Wonders" series that includes Coral, Islet, and Gold Nugget.

Para mi el mejor de la triología, lástima que no tiene solitario. Te hace pensar y valorar en todo momento cual es tu mejor opción.

Maravilloso descubrimiento. Solo 2 decisiones por turno: tamaño de pieza y zona (día o noche) donde lo vas a colocar. Y de repente tienes un juego donde romperte bien la cabeza para lograr dominar las zonas que dan más puntos con tan solo 3 peones. Y quedan las cartas de "ventaja", que permiten romper una vez durante la partida las reglas de colocación tan estrictas. Espectacular. No le pongo el 10 por lo difícil que es distinguir el anverso y el reverso de las cartas día-noche.
