In Temple of Five, you lead a rival clan that dreams of restoring the city to its former glory. To do it, you build a majestic Mayan pyramid on your board, tile by tile, decorating it with symbols of divine power and wisdom. The game is played in 3 stages, and each one has you build a level of your pyramid. Every round, you first exchange decoration tiles with your opponents, keeping the most useful ones for yourself. Then you build, placing your tiles so the decorations form nice chains of the same color. Finally, you position your priests to win blessing cards, which earn you victory points or handy bonuses.

The little twist that makes all the difference: a tile-placement game with worker placement, but on a board that keeps changing. Your priests go back to your reserve when you cover them with new tiles, and you can even reuse them on the same turn. You can also help or hinder your opponents by handing them tiles they do not need. At the end of the game, you add up the points on your blessing cards, the points on unfinished cards and 1 point for each bonus decoration left in your reserve. The player with the most points wins.

Temple of Five is for you if you enjoy family games that are easy to learn but make you plan a few turns ahead. You will probably love this game if you like building puzzles, trades with a bit of mischief and small timing decisions that make the difference between two blessings.

Temple of Five was designed by Carlo A. Rossi, with illustrations by Daniela Ryabicheva and Ludvik Skopalik. The game plays 2 to 4 players and dives into the world of the Maya civilization.
