Minimal Creation (小さな創世記) társasjáték

Angol leírás

Once upon a time, there were no lands, and it was the time for creation. There were two gods — the god of the sea and the god of the mountains — who created the world, but each loved their own creations more than anything else, so they came into conflict.

In Minimal Creation (a.k.a. 小さな創世記), players are these two gods and to end their conflict, they each decide to send one of their followers deep into the other's territory to steal a relic that sits there. Over the course of the game, you lay terrain tiles on the game board to expand your territory and lead your follower, moving it along the terrain to the opponent's temple in which the relic lies. The opponent loses a lot of victory points if you successfully steal their relic, but you also need to place tiles to accumulate small points along the way. How much effort you commit on expanding territory and stealing the relic will determine the outcome of the game.

When a follower successfully reaches the opponent's temple, the temple is removed and the game ends. If you have made any 2x2 squares of your territory, each square is worth one point. The temple is worth points if not removed (the invading follower destroys it). The player with the higher score wins.

Designer's summary

貴方たちは世界を創る海の神と山の神です。ある時二人は争いを始めてしまい、冒険者を相手の領域に送り込み秘宝を奪わせることで決着としようと決めたのでした。
　「小さな創世記」では相手と同一のボード上でタイルをつなげて配置して世界を創りながら、その世界の上で自分の冒険者を導き相手の神殿に向かわせます。限られたアクション数の中でこの二つの行動をどう配分するかで勝敗が分かれるでしょう。

　いずれかの冒険者が相手の神殿に到達した時点で、秘宝を失った2×2のマスがなくなりゲームが終了します。自分が司る地形が2×2マス以上にまとまっていればその面積が得点となり、得点が高い方が勝者となります。
