Sagrada Board Game | Family Game for Kids and Adults | Dice Drafting and Placement Strategy Game | Ages 10+ | 1 to 4 Players | by Floodgate Games

This was the most fun new game I've played in a while, enjoyed by teens, young adults, and not-so-young parents. We loved it so much that when we gifted it in an exchange (and played it later that night at the same party), we immediately ordered our own set. The pieces are absolutely beautiful and well-constructed. Game play is balanced between individual strategy, other players' decisions, and a little luck of the draw. Games are a good length (10 rounds for about 30-40 minutes total), and turns are quick enough that there's not a lot of waiting on other people. Each game is a little different based on the objective and tool cards drawn for the duration of that game. It did seem like a lot of rules to absorb for the first time we played, but they were fairly intuitive and that just made us really eager to play game #2! One suggestion for players is to find a small flat tray to roll the dice into so that they can be slid to players who might not be able to reach/see them all. A suggestion for developers is that the (unnecessary?) numbers on the tool cards tried to confuse just about every person who we taught to play.

I hate dice games but I love games that take random dice rolls and ask you to do something strategic with them. So while the luck of the dice color draw and roll may or may not work for your plans, you do have agency in the use of those dice in regards to choosing and playing them appropriately in your 'window'. Players can block others with their choice of dice-taking but it's not as cut-throat or strategic as 'Azul' in that regard. The variety in the dice and all the different cards also give Sagrada a high replay value. Your play area, or 'window', has its own card with set numbers and colors you need to match and work with; the ways you get points are based on cards that are different each game; you get a different personal goal each game; and there are variable 'tool' cards that give you different ways of swapping dice or changing your board. Sagrada also has a relatively quick play time and is quite snappy with 2 players, making it the sort of game you can play a couple times in a row. It's also very colorful and satisfying to look at with well-made components and you can pack the entire game into half a gallon zip bag if you want to take it somewhere without the box. I have about 100 games in my collection and Sagrada is a great addition. I like to use "Castles of Burgundy" as a very loose comparison, as they are both games that use random dice rolls that require strategy to use, though CoB is a much deeper and longer playing game - Sagrada is a nice appetizer for table top gamers used to meatier games and will likely be a satisfying main course for those new to tabletop gaming.

Sagrada is such a beautifully designed game, both in how it looks and how it plays. The concept of building your own stained-glass window with colorful dice is super creative, and it strikes a great balance between being relaxing and challenging. I love that every game feels different because of the variety of window patterns and objectives. It’s easy to learn but has enough strategy to keep it interesting, especially when you’re trying to plan ahead while other players take the dice you need. Plus, the game is just so pretty on the table, it’s a joy to play every time!

Love this game so much I bought it for a friend for Christmas! Super fun game and easy to play! Super detailed board design! We play it all the time! And usually we will play a couple rounds!

My wife and my family have all really enjoyed it. Great time and its pretty simple to explain and get to playing.

What a fun game. It is not difficult to learn, but it does have enough elements to make it interesting to master. This is a dice drafting game. Which means that each round you will roll a certain number of dice and then pick one. The next player will pick from the remaining dice and so on. There are 5 different colors (red, yellow, green, purple, & blue) of 6-sided dice (90 total). Each player uses an individual game board that has spots for 20 dice (4x5). Each spot tells you whether you have to put a certain numbered die or a certain color of die on that spot, or if any die is acceptable. You can never put two dice of the same color or the same number adjacent to one another. Thus, you must plan ahead and hope the right color die or numbered die is available that round. You draft up to 2 dice each round for 10 rounds and then score. The scoring is determined differently each round with some specific objectives in play based on a deck of cards (I.e. more points for having the same color die in diagonal patterns.) There are too many of these scoring options to cover in this review. Ultimately, the person with the most points wins. There are a few other rules and game options, but you can figure those out on your own with no trouble. I like playing this game with 4 people. The components are really nice and the artwork is beautiful. I don't think you can go wrong with adding this game to your collection.

Llegó en perfectas condiciones, increíble juego.

日本で入荷しているショップが少なかったのでこちらで購入致しました。商品到着までが非常に速く、すぐに遊ぶ事ができ有難かったです。ただ、製造元の問題かと存じますがパッケージの印刷が完全にズレておりました(箱のステンドグラスの絵の光沢のある部分です)。輸入品とはいえ出来れば事前に教えて戴きたかったです。

Good packaging and authentic product.

A good game, not too hard to learn. Love that it can be played by one person as well.

Bellissimo gioco adatto a tutti. Le partite durano 30-40 minuti massimo e ci si diverte
