## Description
In Vineta, you step into the shoes of an angry Norse god, tasked with sinking the city beneath the waves. But here's the twist: each player secretly has one city district they must protect, and also a specific color of houses they are secretly safeguarding. The game unfolds through card play, where players unleash waves against districts. The goal is to collectively sink districts, but with a keen eye on your own protected area and houses. At the end of each round, the district that bore the brunt of the waves is removed, along with any houses within it. After eight rounds of divine demolition, only a single district will remain. Points are then tallied based on the houses of your secret color claimed during the game, and bonus points are awarded to the player who was secretly protecting the final remaining district and any houses it contains. It's a swift game of bluffing and strategy, where you aim to shrink the map while simultaneously shielding your own territory.
