Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
Coming in September from Calliope Games are Ancestree and Capital City.
Ancestree ($30) by Eric Lang is a tile drafting game about genealogy. The idea is to lay out a family tree by matching ancestor tiles by colors and hearts. Points are scored throughout the game by having more matching colors than the players sitting adjacent. And bonus points are scored at the end of the game from matched hearts representing marriages.
Capital City ($25) by James Ernest challenges players trying to settle a frontier town with the competing costs of bringing people west and building the businesses in which they’ll work. Victory points are needed to win but dollars are needed to pay for those things.
