What is Villa Panda

In the green and peaceful hills of Villa Panda, a new challenge awaits. Each player takes on the role of a hungry panda, aspiring to become the leader of this charming village. To achieve this honor and reach the necessary 12 victory points, you will need to build, plan, and expand your influence, hiring other pandas to strengthen your position. With a building erected, each new panda under your command, and each cunning strategy implemented, you will accumulate points that will bring you closer to the prestigious title of Panda Leader.

The game takes place in successive rounds, and in each round, the active player will develop three phases: 1) Dice throwing: he will throw two dice in front of everyone. 2) Card activation: In order, the sum of both dice activates the Panda cards of ALL players. The active player then selects the result of a die and activates only his cards with that value. 3) Actions Phase: Place your meeple in an area of the main board to obtain specific resources (between water, bamboo, bao, or gold) or perform a specific action between; Market (exchange resources), Build (buildings, overlapping panda), Hire Panda and Activate Panda.

The first player to get 12 points triggers the end of the game. The entire round of players will be played until reaching the player who triggered the end of the game again, who will play one last turn. The player with the most points is the winner of the game.

Excelente juego para introducir mecánicas Euro a mis hijas, nos ha encantado.

Es una buena entrada a las mecánicas de planteamiento a medio plazo como tienen los Euros. Es bueno, es bonito, transportable, y unos 45 mins de juego aprox. Lo único mas o menos es el manual, muchas reglas no se entienden bien. Con un tutorial de youtube se logra entender mrjot rl manual. La unica duda es la rejugabilidad que tenga, pero al tener la versión emperador, yo creo qur eso hará qur no sr qurmr tan rápido. Vale mucho la pena tenerlo en la ludoteca.

Muy buen juego. Una introducción al mundo euro, con un gameplay que se divide en 2 fases: una inicial de farming donde debes aumentar tus pandas para maximizar la productividad, para después ir asignándolos a edificios que te dan puntos de victoria. Un muy interesante trade-off que te hará calcular y preparar tus próximas jugadas dd manera estratégica, manteniendo su simpleza de componentes. Además, el juego es precioso.

Un muy buen juego en donde administrando nuestros pandas podremos conseguir los recursos necesarios para contratar nuevos pandas y asi poder construir los edificios que nos darán la victoria... Y el arte realmente hermoso

Villa Panda es el juego al que quieres llegar después de tu última partida de Catán, ya que la reimplementación de mecánicas de juegos de entrada lo hacen un imprescindible para una ludoteca en crecimiento. La mecánica de construcción de motor de cartas y el uso de dados lo hacen un juego satisfactorio tanto en la evolución de la partida, como en la materialidad de sus componentes. Evaluar cuándo vas a la Villa y cuándo te repliegas le aportan al juego el toque de estrategia que esperas de un juego de este tipo.
