About the game

What is The Princes of Florence

In The Princes of Florence, players attract artists and scholars to their palace while trying to become the most prestigious family in Florence.

Over seven rounds, players attempt to score points in various ways, with most points being earned by playing profession cards to generate "work points", which can be exchanged for money or victory points. The game includes a variety of professions, such astronomers, organists, and architects; each profession is attracted to a particular combination of building, landscape feature, and social freedom, and players acquire these items via auctions. The more that a player can match these preferences, the more work points they earn — but the minimum requirement of work points increases each round, and you must meet that threshold in order to convert the work points.

Juego que probé gracias a que lo adquirió Javi, por sus similitudes con Caylus. Es un juego de gestión de recursos bastante sesudo. Me gustó bastante. Lástima no haberlo jugado más. Actualización Feb2010. Lo volví a jugar en el CiberChigre de Gijón en Feb2010 y ya no me pareció tan sesudo. De hecho diría que es bastante sencillo de jugar. Gixmo hizo una buena observación. Es poco rejugable, porque una vez que das con una estrategia ganadora, siempre vas a tender a repetirla.

Juego de gestión de recursos muy interesante. Numerosas vías de conseguir la victoria, y una ambientación preciosa. A very interesting resources management game. Many ways of pursuing victory, and a very nice theme.
