We are happy today to introduce a type of game we didn't have yet on Board Game Arena. Dragon Castle, a game inspired from the traditional Chinese Majhong game, designed by Hjalmar Hach, Luca Ricci and Lorenzo Silva, and published by Horrible Guild, is now available online!
In Dragon Castle, you are a feudal lord building a castle on your realm. Luckily for you, the mighty Dragon Castle, once the pride of the whole country, is now crumbling. You'll be able to draw resources from its waning power to consolidate your own, and if you take care of flattering Dragons and invoking Spirits at the best possible time to help you, maybe your castle will be the next to rise above all others!
On your turn, you'll pick a free tile from the top layer of the Dragon Castle, then choose to pair it with another if possible, or sometimes to take a Shrine instead of a second tile. Then, you'll use these tiles to build your castle. Each time you create a set of 4 connected tiles or more of the same type, you'll consolidate them to score points, and place one or more Shrines (depending on the tile type) to score even more points. Paying attention to what type of tiles other players need in order to prevent them from getting those is advised: it's a powerful way of staying ahead of the competition.
The Dragon will grant you bonus points at the end of the game if you match its conditions, so you should try to please it. Anyway, it's always a bad idea to displease a Dragon! The Spirit's power can also be a big boost on your way to the top, but can be summoned only with a cost: you should make sure it's worth it. Every game is a new challenge since the shape of the Dragon Castle, the Dragon card and the Spirit card in play will be different, creating a lot of combinations to explore.
We would like to give a huge thank you to Horrible Guild for granting us an authorization to host their game online on Board Game Arena, and to the developer hersh who crafted a really great implementation using BGA Studio.
We should also say that the art for the game, created by Cinyee Chiu, is really distinctive and beautiful, transporting you in a colourful Chinese dream of castles, spirits and dragons.
Enjoy the dream and the game!
龍城對壘
今天我們很高興地介紹,這款在BGA裡從未出現過的新遊戲型態 。
由Hjalmar Hach,Luca Ricci和Lorenzo Silva設計並由Horrible Guild發行,受中國傳統遊戲「麻將」啟發的遊戲《 龍之城堡》現已在線發售!
立即遊玩吧!
在《 龍城對壘》中 ,您是封建領主,在自己的圖板上建造一座城堡 。
幸運的是,曾經舉世聞名的雄偉龍城現正瓦解中。
您將能夠從其減弱的能力中汲取資源來鞏固自己的資源,如果您在最佳時機照顧奉承的龍並援引烈酒來幫助您,也許您的城堡將是下一個超越所有其他城堡的人 !
輪到您了 ,您將從龍城堡的頂層挑選一塊免費的磚塊 ,然後如果可能的話將其與另一塊磚塊配對 ,或者有時選擇神宮代替第二塊。
然後,您將使用這些磚塊來建造城堡。
每次創建一組 4個或多個相同類型的連接磁貼時,您都將其合併以得分,並放置一個或多個神Sh (取決於磁貼類型)以得分更高。
建議注意其他玩家需要哪種類型的磚塊、阻止他們得到那些磚塊:這是在競爭中保持領先的有效方法。
如果您符合條件, 龍將在遊戲結束時給您獎勵積分,因此您應該嘗試取悅它。
無論如何,惹怒一條龍總是一個壞主意!
神明的力量也可以極大地促進您攀登高峰,但是只有付出代價才能召喚出來:您應該確保這是值得的。
每款遊戲都是新的挑戰,因為遊戲中龍城,龍牌和神明牌的形狀會有所不同,從而創造了許多可供探索的組合。
我們非常感謝 Horrible Guild授予我們在Board Game Arena上在線託管遊戲的授權,並感謝開發者hersh ,他使用BGA Studio製作了非常好的實現。
我們還應該說, 邱詠儀(Cinyee Chiu)創造的遊戲藝術確實獨特而美麗,將您帶入 了中國人夢colorful 以求的城堡,烈酒和龍的夢想 。
祝大家在夢裡翱翔時玩得愉快!
