Descrizione: Shakespeare’s First Folio has players taking the role of printers in the early Seventeenth Century competing to print the first folio of Shakespeare’s plays.
The game begins with the Deck of Plays being dealt out to each player. The deck consists of 36 cards in three suits (Comedies, Histories and Tragedies). Each player may keep one card for each trick they took (and pay one coin for each kept card). The rest of the cards are returned to create the draw deck for the Deck of Plays.
The game then transitions to a worker placement game with four possible actions:
Gather resources (from the dice in the marketplace)
Purchase a play (for 1 one of each resource - paper, type, ink)
Hire a person (for 2 coins)
Spin the Wheel of Fortune (the last player to do so in the turn will be the first player in the following turn)
After several turns, when there four or less cards left in the Deck of Plays, the game transitions to the final auction for the remaining plays.
Final scoring is thus:
1 point for each play
2 points for each set (same number of all three suits)
X points for the longest run in each suit (so 2-3-4-5-6 of comedies would score 5 points)
X points for certain personage cards
3 points for most coins (or 2 points to each player tied)
The most points wins and will print Shakespeare's First Folio!
