Comete

It's the St. Lorenz's night and as per tradition, people gather under a starry sky to see their wishes granted by the shooting stars. What most people don't know is that, in order to realize a particular wish, you need cunning and strategy. You will have to capture the right comets to make your dreams come true. But be careful: if you chase love you will hardly realize the desire for richness, the same its true for those who chase fame, at the expense of virtue... Plan your moves carefully, and avoid the traps of your opponent: who first realizes two wishes... wins the game! Comete is a language-independent, highly thematic strategy game, which hides a fascinating and delicate depth of play. Comete is a "perfect strategy" game, where all the information is known to all players and the resources available for each player are identical: your choices will make the difference. But it's not an abstract game, shooting stars are elusive and unpredictable, and so they are in the game. No one can know what will be the next fallen star to appear in the sky, even less when the comet you need will appear. Moreover, they exist as in the past comets harbingers of feast or famine and often it will be up to the player to decide how to unravel the celestial message. To capture a comet you will have to «attract» it to you by matching its colours. You have several «wish fragments» (acrylic gems) to play each turn, which you must tactically place by line of the celestial horizon: if a comet passing next to them has the same colours, you have captured it! —description from the publisher
