Angol leírás

Las Ligas de la Ñ: El fuego de las Bernardas ("The Ñ Leagues: The Fire of the Bernardas") is a card game of challenges, social interaction, and culture, designed for 1 to 12 players and set in the universe of Las Ligas de la Ñ. Inspired by the symbolic confrontation between Bernarda Alba, a character created by Federico García Lorca, and Bernarda X, a figure derived from a famous Spanish popular saying, the game presents an entertaining clash between two opposing views of morality, social conventions, and individual freedom, in which fire represents both repression and rebellion.

In this new Ñ game (the fourteenth in the series), players must overcome a variety of challenges inspired by historical, literary, mythological, and original characters from the universe of Las Ligas de la Ñ. The cards combine cultural references with personal, intellectual, creative, physical, and social challenges, encouraging humor, improvisation, debate, strategy, and a deeper understanding of the other players.

Each card features an illustration, information about its character or theme, and three different challenges, organized into six categories: CONFESS, DARE, CHOOSE, JUDGE, SEDUCE, and CONSPIRE. The cards are also classified according to eight thematic values: Ñ (Eñe), S (Wisdom), F (Strength), M (Movement), FV (Favor), MA (Magic), CI (Science), and AR (Art).

In the competitive mode, players hold cards in their hands and can also use shared cards placed on the table. Taking turns, they must complete different challenges or present them to other players, individually or in groups. These challenges include personal confessions, difficult decisions, debates, performances, creative activities, skill-based tasks, and strategic actions capable of changing the course of the game. Successfully completing challenges allows players to earn points, while certain actions may introduce advantages, card exchanges, and unexpected situations. The objective is to reach the agreed target score before the other participants.
Although the recommended number of players is 1 to 12, larger groups can also participate. However, the more players there are, the fewer cards remain available in the general deck, limiting opportunities to draw and refresh cards. With a sufficient number of additional cards, the game can be adapted to accommodate larger groups.

In the solo mode, the player draws cards and completes challenges that do not require other participants, turning the experience into a personal journey through cultural, philosophical, and existential questions. This mode allows players to explore the cards through exercises in reflection, creativity, and self-discovery, without the need for competition.

The game has two expansions: Las Ligas de la Ñ: El fuego de las Bernardas – Cosueños, aimed at a more mature audience, and Las Ligas de la Ñ: El fuego de las Bernardas – Asia, created especially for Japan Weekend Madrid.
