About the game
What you do in a play session
Kod DaVinci, po sledam velikih tayn is a card game with a board that drops you into a secret order of Renaissance monks. The game starts with a deck packed with Relics, Traps, Breaking, Unexpectedness, Professional and Score Points cards, plus a field representing the monks' hierarchy. Your goal? Hide other players' relics in secret spots, open opponents' hideouts, and set traps to foil anyone trying to infiltrate yours.
The Secret Unit Deployment mechanic lets you place relics and traps out of sight, creating opportunities for bluffing and deduction. Meanwhile, Trading lets you barter cards or information, forging temporary alliances or pulling off sudden betrayals. Each round mixes silent strategy with quick action, as opening a hideout can earn points or trigger a surprise trap.
Designed for 2‑6 players, a typical game runs about 30 minutes, perfect for fans of deduction, bluffing and Renaissance themes. The components are straightforward – cards and a board – but the depth comes from hidden decisions and player negotiations. If you love the scent of old parchment, covert moves and trying to read your opponents' minds, Kod DaVinci serves it all in a compact, twist‑filled package.
