Maui
Locals and tourists in Maui are heading to the beach for a chance to find a nice spot to lay their towels and enjoy the amazing view of the Hawaiian ocean. In Maui, you want to find and place beachgoers on your sand so that they create pleasing patterns, while also placing their towels close to the ocean or under the shade of trees or umbrellas to earn the most points. However, getting too close to either of these areas is risky and might ruin their plans!
Maui is a clever drafting and tile-laying game where making connections by matching patterns will increase how many points your connections will make. You may
even wish to sacrifice some points by placing towels out of bounds in order to increase the value of specific colors.
Features:
- A tile-laying game where players draft sets of beach towels to try to connect matching colors along the beach.
- A unique take on tile-laying where tiles only build out in one direction, but how they score depends on players connecting patterns and if they’re willing to sacrifice points to get better value increases.
- Placing towels closer to the beach or under shade makes those connections more valuable, but riskier as it could force players to play some part of their tile out
of bound in future turns.
- Players can also earn bonuses by setting towels under umbrellas that will improve certain colors’ value or help them collect sets of pearls.
