About the game

What is Tholos

Participate in the construction of the Tholos of Delphi, the temple that marks the center of the universe marked by Zeus and built inside the Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia. As a builder, face your opponent in a duel and achieve the greatest influence within its sacred construction. May the gods be propitious to you!

Tholos is a game of majorities for two players with high interaction. On a turn, you take one of two actions:

Take stones of one color from the quarry into your workshop, with each workshop holding at most three stones. You can take up to three stones of your color (black/white), up to two neutral stones (gray), or one stone of your opponent (white/black).

Play any stone from your workshop onto the game board. The board has seven locations, each with a unique power, and each location can have a column of at most five stones. If you place a stone of your color in a location, then you take the special action associated with that location, e.g., moving the top stone of a column to another location, moving a stone from the opponent's workshop to your workshop, placing a second stone from your workshop, or returning a played stone to the quarry.

No cabe duda que #Tholos ha sido una de las grandes revelaciones de este último año. No he encontrado a nadie que de una reseña negativa del juego y tal es su éxito que fue el ganador de la Batalla de Juegos Edición 2 jugadores que se realizó en el mes de febrero. Con unas reglas muy sencillas, #Tholos ofrece un juego estratégico a la par que bonito. Es un juego al que hay que darle al coco para dominar la partida ya que la dinámica de puntuación lo requiere y buen uso de las habilidades especiales del Templo son esenciales. Además, el juego trae un modo avanzado, que desde mi punto de vista n

Es un abstracto para dos jugadores, de mayorías en el que los jugadores pueden hacer alternativamente dos tipos de acciones: O recargar su almacén con fichas (que puede ser propias, del contrario o neutrales) o colocar una ficha en una de las siete columnas que hay en juego. Si la ficha que se coloca en las columnas es una ficha del color propio, cada columna tiene una acción asociada, que permite mover fichas de una columna a otra, hacia/desde la reserva... ect. El juego finaliza cuando todas las columnas tienen 5 fichas. Es un juego muy estratégico con más chicha de lo que parece. Muy intere
