Santorini TournamentWHEN: Saturday, May 16th, 2020 WHERE: Prairie Game eXpo START TIME: 12:00 PM DURATION: 120 minutes MAXIMUM PLAYERS: 16 There are 3 rounds to the tournament. They consist of: - 1 Preliminary Round (4 tables of 4 people) - 1 Semi-Final Round (2 tables of 4 people) - 1 Championship Round (1 table of 4 people) Tournament FormatThe Preliminary Round will consist of 4 boards with 4 players. Players will play best of 3 games. The winner of the games will qualify for the Semi-Final Round. In the Semi-Final Round, there will be 2 boards with 4 players. The team winners of only one game will move to the Championship Round. The two final teams will play one game, winners take all. If the tournament does not have 4 tables (8 teams), we will only play 2 tables (4 teams). The winners of each table will play best of 3 games at the Championship Round. PRIZES: Tournament winners receives a PGX prize mug Time limit: The first round will go no longer than 60 minutes. The Semi-Final & Championship Round will go no longer then 30 minutes. Other notes: -Players will be randomly seated. -Teams of 2 will be randomly selected -Players will receive a random god card for each game. We will only be playing gods #1-8. Santorini is an accessible strategy game, simple enough for an elementary school classroom while aiming to provide gameplay depth and content for hardcore gamers to explore, The rules are simple. Each turn consists of 2 steps:
1. Move - move one of your builders into a neighboring space. You may move your Builder Pawn on the same level, step-up one level, or step down any number of levels.
2. Build - Then construct a building level adjacent to the builder you moved. When building on top of the third level, place a dome instead, removing that space from play.
Winning the game - If either of your builders reaches the third level, you win.
Variable player powers - Santorini features variable player powers layered over an otherwise abstract game, with 40 thematic god and hero powers that fundamentally change the way the game is played.https://youtu.be/H7oRu8QuEMc CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR TOURNAMENT

They consist of: - 1 Preliminary Round (4 tables of 4 people) - 1 Championship Round (1 table of 4 people) Tournament FormatThe Preliminary Round will consist of 4 boards with 4 players. Players will play 1 game. The winner of each game will qualify for the Championship Round.

PRIZES: Tournament winner receives a PGX prize mug Time limit: No round will go longer than 60 minutes. Final determination will be based on number of victory points total among games played in a round. If we do not make our 16 player roster we will make amendments on the fly. In Through the Desert, two to five players each control a tribe of nomads vying for control of the desert. By establishing caravans and taking over oases, the players gain points as their tribes increase in power.
Strategy is essential in deciding how and where to build your tribe's caravans. There are multiple ways to gain points and several ways to win. Should you try to build the longest caravan? Or should you dominate the desert's oases? Don't forget to keep an eye on your opponents' caravans, or you may find your own tribe cut off from valuable water holes.https://youtu.be/SZxrKGbff0YCLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR TOURNAMENT

Battle Sheep TournamentWHEN: Saturday September 21, 2019 WHERE: Prairie Game eXpo START TIME: 12:00 PM DURATION: 90-120 minutes MAXIMUM PLAYERS: 16 There are 2 rounds to the tournament. They consist of: - 1 Preliminary Round (4 tables of 4 people) - 1 Championship Round (1 table of 4 people) Tournament FormatWe are still working on the format of this tournament. PRIZES: Tournament winner receives a PGX prize mug Time limit: No round will go longer than 60 minutes. Final determination will be based on number of victory points total among games played in a round. If we do not make our 16 player roster we will make amendments on the fly. In Battle Sheep (first released as Splits), players start the game by constructing the board from identical four-hex tiles, then each player places his/her tall stack of discs on one of the border hexes. Players take turns removing some number of discs from the top of one of their stacks, moving that new stack of discs as far away as it can go in a straight line. Players must leave at least one disc behind when moving, so the board gradually fills up and movement opportunities become more and more scarce. The player occupying the most spaces at the end of the game wins!http://youtu.be/fTPmQQMj87ECLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR TOURNAMENT

Sagrada TournamentWHEN: Saturday September 21, 2019 WHERE: Prairie Game eXpo START TIME: 2:30 PM DURATION: 120 minutes MAXIMUM PLAYERS: 16 There are 2 rounds to the tournament. They consist of: - 1 Preliminary Round (4 tables of 4 people) - 1 Championship Round (1 table of 4 people) Tournament FormatThe Preliminary Round will consist of 4 boards with 4 players. Players will play 1 game. The winner of each game will qualify for the Championship Round. If the tournament does not have 4 tables, the winner of each game will qualify, plus the highest scoring player will move to the Championship Round as needed. PRIZES: Tournament winner receives a PGX prize mug Time limit: No game will go longer than 60 minutes. Final determination will be based on number of victory points total among games played in a round. If we do not make our 16 player roster we will make amendments on the fly. Draft dice and use the tools-of-the-trade in Sagrada to carefully construct your stained glass window masterpiece.
In more detail, each player builds a stained glass window by building up a grid of dice on their player board. Each board has some restrictions on which color or shade (value) of die can be placed there. Dice of the same shade or color may never be placed next to each other. Dice are drafted in player order, with the start player rotating each round, snaking back around after the last player drafts two dice. Scoring is variable per game based on achieving various patterns and varieties of placement...as well as bonus points for dark shades of a particular hidden goal color.
Special tools can be used to help you break the rules by spending skill tokens; once a tool is used, it then requires more skill tokens for the next player to use them.
The highest scoring window artisan wins!https://youtu.be/0JLpaGHL8MQCLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR TOURNAMENT

Blue Lagoon TournamentWHEN: Saturday May 11, 2019 WHERE: Prairie Game eXpo START TIME: 12:00 PM DURATION: 120 minutes MAXIMUM PLAYERS: 16 There are 2 rounds to the tournament. They consist of: - 1 Preliminary Round (4 tables of 4 people) - 1 Championship Round (1 table of 4 people) Tournament FormatThe Preliminary Round will consist of 4 boards with 4 players. Players will play 1 game. The winner of each game will qualify for the Championship Round. If the tournament does not have 4 tables, the winner of each game will qualify, plus the highest scoring player will move to the Championship Round as needed. PRIZES: Tournament winner receives a copy of Blue Lagoon Time limit: No game will go longer than 60 minutes. Final determination will be based on number of victory points total among games played in a round. If we do not make our 16 player roster we will make amendments on the fly. Blue Lagoon is an area control and set collection game in which players manage a group of settlers spreading out over the islands of a newly discovered archipelago.
The game is played over two phases (the exploration phase followed by the settlement phase). Over the course of both phases, you will expand your presence on the board by adding one new token each turn (either a settler or a village token). The goal is to collect the resources scattered over the map by placing your tokens on top of them. In the first phase, you can place a new token anywhere you like, as long as it is touching either the lagoon OR one of your previously played tokens. In the second phase, the board is cleared, except for the villages, and now you can only expand from the villages you played in the first phase! At the end of both phases, players score points for the sets of resources they collected. Most points wins.https://youtu.be/0q1hWfH9S_8CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR TOURNAMENT
