About Masai

Masai is a dice and seed allocation game that is fun and full of interaction. Players take on the role of a Masai mother and must make one of the beautiful traditional necklaces of the Masai people. It's just a single necklace, with limited spaces. Therefore, the best strategy to gain control of empty areas and spaces will be crowned with victory! In Masai, players compete to fill empty spaces in a single necklace. For this, a draw is carried out at each round, where players choose two dice, one to access a sector and the other to place it inside the necklace. The player must check if there is already a die with the same face in the selected sector, as there can only be one face of each type in each location. Players score points each time they fill an empty spot on the necklace and also receive points for links and for controlling areas within sectors. The game ends as soon as the players have no more space to fill in the necklace, the player with the most points wins the game. Masai is simple but intense and cerebral, don't miss this challenge and become the best Masai craftsman.
