Giants

Theme : Giants takes place during the Golden Age of Easter Island, before the fall of the civilisation due to the environmental destruction wrought on it by its previous residents. Players play clan leaders on Easter Islands, constructing ahus (the rock platforms) and erecting giant Moaïs to appease their ancestors. The player who manages to build the largest, most elaborate and well positioned Moaïs will gain the acknowledgment of all as being the greatest clan.

Gameplay: In Giants, players must use their warriors, Sorcerers and their Clan Leader to build, erect and transport their Moais to the best locations on the board.

In the first phase of Giants, players bid on the available Moais that have been constructed, allocating their tribal members as they deem necessary. Taking turns placing their tribal members on the board, players will be able to transport the newly constructed Moais to locations around the island. Giants provides an interesting addition to the game with players able to use each others tribal members in transportation - but at the cost of additional victory points for the helping players.

At any time, players may use their sorcerers to increase their tribe, cut down the forests for wooden logs to aid transportation, gain mystical Rongo tablets and tribal markers or construct headdresses.

The proper allocation of their resources on the board, using the other players tribal members and deciding on the correct, most advantageous Moai locations will decide the winner of Giants.
