• Azul invites you, a tile laying artisan, to embellish the walls of the Royal Palace of Evora!
• Players take turns drafting coloured tiles from suppliers to their board. Later in the round, players score points based on how they've placed their tiles to decorate the palace!
• Extra points are scored for specific patterns and completing sets; wasted supplies harm the player's score. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins!
• Captures the beautiful aesthetics of Moorish art in a contemporary board game!
The board game Azul captures the beautiful aesthetics of Moorish art. Players compete as artisans decorating the walls of the Royal Palace of Evora. By carefully drafting the correct quantity and style of tiles, the most clever of artisans plan ahead to maximize the beauty of their work (not to mention their scores!) while ensuring they wasted no supplies in the process. Introduced by the Moors, “azulejos” (originally white and blue ceramic tiles) were fully embraced by the Portuguese, when their King Manuel I, on a visit to the Alhambra palace in Southern Spain, was mesmerized by the stunning beauty of the Moorish decorative tiles. The king, awestruck by the interior beauty of the Alhambra, immediately ordered that his own palace in Portugal be decorated with similar wall tiles. Designed by the world famous, award winning game author Michael Kiesling.
