House of Fado

In House of Fado, you gain prestige for your Fado house by managing your restaurant, hiring and promoting Fado musicians, attracting customers and critics, and writing Fados (p. 3).

Setup

1. Place the game board in the middle of the table, set up the musician market with Musician tiles, and sort the Notation tiles into four stacks on their corresponding board spaces (p. 3).
2. Set up the Fado stack and customer bag with the appropriate number of components and groups based on your player count (p. 3, 11).
3. Each player chooses a color and takes a restaurant board, 3 workers, 8 prestige cubes, 1 scoring disk, 1 decoration tile, and 5 money (p. 4).
4. Players cover their 4-customer table with their decoration tile, place prestige cubes on their restaurant board's prestige track, and place a treble clef notation tile at the bottom of their board (p. 4).

How a Turn Works

1. The game is played in a clockwise order starting with the first player (p. 4).
2. On your turn, place one of your workers on one of the seven action spaces on the game board or on the action space on your restaurant board, and then perform that action (p. 4).
3. In your first three turns, place workers from the supply next to your restaurant board; from your fourth turn onwards, take workers placed on a previous turn (p. 4).
4. If you place your worker on an action space occupied by another player's worker, that worker is moved to an unoccupied kick-out space for that action space, and its owner immediately receives that kick-out space's benefit (p. 20).

How the Game Ends

The evidence does not state the overall win condition or final score details beyond noting that the game ends once the third star has been gained, after which you complete the current round so all players have an equal number of turns and then perform final scoring (p. 14).
