Rauha - draft game
Rauha means peace in Finnish (more precisely in Finnish) and that is what this game is about. Having become a shaman, it is your responsibility to watch over one of the five worlds of the planet Rauha. You will have to welcome deities to your land, develop your world and move your avatar around. Your ultimate mission: to generate enough positive energy to guarantee harmony and peace for centuries to come.
Each player has a square board with 9 squares and an avatar at the top of the first column on the left.
The game is played over 4 rounds, divided into 3 'draft' rounds and 1 round of scoring Energy points (=victory).
During each round, 4 Biome cards will be placed between each person.
Take the pack of cards to your left or right, depending on your avatar's position, and choose one.
Working clockwise, starting with the person who has the most Energy points, each person places their card on their grid, paying any cost, and activates all the Biomes in the column or row opposite their avatar.
Then move your avatar clockwise.
By aligning the types of Biomes and Animals on the tiles, you can create deities with unique powers!
Rauha is aimed at advanced players who particularly appreciate drafting mechanics but who want to discover a more original system.
