Description

At the turn of the 16th Century, King Manuel I commissionedPortugal's greatest artisans to construct grandiose buildings. After completingthe Palaces of Evora and Sintra, the king sought to build a summer pavilion tohonour the most famous members of the royal family. This construction wasintended for the most talented artisans — whose skills meet the splendourthat the royal family deserves. Sadly, King Manuel I died before constructionever began.

In Azul: Summer Pavilion, players return to Portugal to accomplish the taskthat never began. As a master artisan, you must use the finest materials tocreate the summer pavilion while carefully avoiding wasting supplies. Only thebest will rise to the challenge to honour the Portuguese royal family.

Azul: Summer Pavilion lasts six rounds, and in each round players drafttiles, then place them on their individual player boards to score points. Eachof the six colours of tiles is wild during one of the rounds.

At the start of each round, draw tiles at random from the bag to refill eachof the five, seven, or nine factories with four tiles each. Draw tiles as neededto refill the ten supply spaces on the central scoring board. Players then taketurns drafting tiles. You can choose to take all of the tiles of a non-wildcolour on a factory and place them next to your board; if any wild tiles are onthis factory, you must take one of them. Place all remaining tiles in the centreof the table. Alternatively, you can take all tiles of a non-wild colour fromthe centre of play; you must also take one wild tile if present.

After all tiles have been claimed, players then take turns placing tiles ontheir individual boards. Each board depicts seven stars that would be composedof six tiles; each space on a star shows a number from 1 to 6, and six of thestars are for tiles of a single colour while the seventh will be composed of onetile of each colour. To place a tile on the blue 5, for example, you mustdiscard five blue or wild tiles from next to your player board (with at leastone blue being required), placing one blue tile in the blue 5 space and therest in the discard tower. You score 1 point for this tile and 1 point foreach tile within this star connected to the newly placed tile.

If you completely surround a pillar, statue, or window on your game boardwith tiles, you get an immediate bonus, taking 1–3 tiles from the centralsupply spaces and placing them next to your board. At the end of the round, youcan carry over at most four tiles to the next round; discard any others, losing1 point for each such tile.

After six rounds, you score a bonus for each of the seven stars that you'vefilled completely. Additionally, you score a bonus for having covered all sevenspaces of value 1, 2, 3 or 4. You lose 1 point for each remaining tileunused, and then whoever has the most points wins.
