Níjar

Níjar puts you in the shoes of a ceramic artisan in 1920s Almería. Manage your workshop, extracting clay, forming and firing vessels, painting them and selling them at market. In three rounds of worker placement, deploy your artisans to increasingly limited actions to expand your business with strategies that change every turn. A resource management and strategy game perfect for those who love historical themes and area control mechanics.

Description Description

Washed by the crystal-clear waters of Cabo de Gata and illuminated by Andalusian light, Níjar is a small town in the province of Almería with a ceramic tradition dating back to the Bronze Age, flourishing further during the Islamic period. The game takes us back to the 1920s, before the tourism boom of the 1950s, when the local economy revolved around ceramics, esparto weaving and the production of jarapas, the colorful fabrics that remain a symbol of the region today.

Each player expands their workshop by adding new pottery wheels to produce more pieces: clay is extracted, vessels are formed, fired, painted and sold at market. The game unfolds over three rounds with a decreasing number of action discs (7, 6 and 5): on your turn you can place a craftswoman on an action space to perform it, discard a final scoring card to perform an action of your choice, sell up to two fired pieces at market, or close your workshop for the round and take a bonus.

Perroloko it's one of those little gems that, year by year, just keep improving. This Níjar it's a medium euro, the first one of the line, and it's a banger. I've played the evolving dessing and it's just combo fest of little evolving engines that ends with you always wanting more

Another amazing game from Perro Loko and Devir! If you enjoyed Orloj, you will love this! Not quite as heavy as Orloj, but similar vibes. How to Play: https://youtu.be/dQFzNldw7Yk Review copy provided by the publisher.

Played the prototype several times and always saw the potential in it. Can't wait to play the final product with the new theme!!
