About this game

Build golems and guide them through the streets of 16th-century Prague in a heavy euro about Kabbalistic creation. Construct golems from different materials, animate them with mystical knowledge, and send them to perform tasks across the city. The marble-drop action selection uses a physical tower where marbles trigger different actions based on where they land. Area control across Prague's districts combines with knowledge tracks and artifact collection. A Simone Luciani and Virginio Gigli design with their trademark interlocking euro depth.
