Incaico

Incaico is a competitive card game in which players populate their villages in order to collect resources, construct buildings and monuments, develop commerce and impose their military might.

At the beginning of each round, players draft resource, building, monument, worker, warrior and other types of cards into their hands. Low-level cards with no cost can be immediately added to a player's village. Other cards demand resources - stone, wood, gold and/or "charqui" - or a minimum number of workers in the village.

The player with the most Sun points at the end of four rounds is the winner. Sun points are earned in a number of ways:

• having workers in your village,
• having resources in your village,
• constructing buildings and monuments,
• fulfilling unique requirements (having three of a certain card, for example), and
• having a larger army than your neighbours, forcing them to pay Sun point tributes.

Players will also learn some basic words in Quechua and Aymara, two Incan languages which are still spoken today.
