About the game
What you do in a play session
And to spice things up from the get-go, there's the Starting Wealth tile: the Cistern. With this one, you secure 10 corn immediately. But here's the twist: your opponents each get 1 less corn (unless their starting tile doesn't grant corn, then no harm done). It's a clever way to get ahead, but with a touch of 'look what you did, neighbor.' If you draw the Cistern when placing dummy workers, brace yourself: one of your dummy workers will be out of play, making the game a tad tighter. This expansion is for those who already master Tzolk'in and want to add an extra flavor, some quick decisions, and a bit of subtle negative interaction. It's like finding a hidden treasure that makes all the difference!
