About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to travel back to the 60s and organize the most epic music festival of all time in Come Together! The vibe is all about peace, love, and great music, and your mission is to attract the coolest crowds and hottest artists of the era, like The Cascadians and Tikki Tooraid. To achieve this, you'll manage a team of volunteers, build stages and camps, and, of course, promote your event to make it the summer's biggest hit.
The game features a worker placement mechanic with a clever twist: you don't immediately claim the artist card or resource when you place your volunteer. You have to wait for someone to activate that location for everyone to benefit. This creates a constant dilemma: is it worth securing the card you want right now, or should you wait for the right moment to activate a location and grab something others also desire? Timing and anticipating opponents' moves are crucial. Each player has asymmetric powers, adding an extra layer of flavor and ensuring each game is unique, thanks to the variable setup. With beautifully illustrated components, including 35 artist cards, special powers, and plenty of meeples, Come Together offers an immersive and strategic experience for up to six players, with minimal downtime between turns.
