Santoriniis an accessible strategy game, simple enough for an elementary school classroom while aiming to provide gameplay depth and content for hardcore gamers to explore.Santorinifeatures variable player powers layered over an otherwise abstract game, with many thematic god and hero powers that fundamentally change the way the game is played.
The rules are simple. Each turn consists of 2 steps:
Move - Move one of your builders onto an unoccupied neighboring space that is a similar level, up one level, or down any number of levels.
Build - Construct a building level adjacent to the builder you moved. When building on top of the third level, place a dome instead, removing that space from play.
If one of your builders moves from a lower level to the third level, you win. Or, if your opponent cannot move, you win.
