Origins: First Builders Gameplay Runthrough

Type: strategy, city building, dice, mythology
Designers: Adam Kwapiński
Artists: Zbigniew Umgelter, Aleksander Zawada

In Origins: First Builders, you are an archon, guiding a population of freemen, influencing the construction of buildings and monuments, climbing the three mighty zodiac temples, and taking part in an arms race — all in an effort to leave the greatest mark on mankind’s ancient history.

You start the game with a city consisting of just two building tiles: the Agora tile and the Palace tile. As the game develops, your city will grow in size and strength as you add new building tiles, each of which has a special ability that triggers when first added to a city and when closing a district. Your placement on the military track indicates the rewards you receive when you attack and your chances of becoming the first player.

Origins: First Builders is played over a number of rounds, with a round ending only after each player has passed. If a game end condition has not yet been triggered, the game continues with a new round. In your turn, you perform one of the following actions:

• Visit an encounter site with your workers to gain resources and an additional citizen or speaker dice, advance on the zodiac temple tracks (and potentially gain zodiac cards), and advance and attack the military track.

• Close a district, gaining victory points (VPs) and possibly gold for matching a district card’s building pattern, additional bonuses based on the buildings you activate, and additional VPs at the end of the game based on the value of the citizen die you use to close the district.

• Build a tower level to increase your endgame scoring based on the tower heights and the matching color dice you use to close your districts.

• Grow your population.

• Pass.

The game finishes at the end of the round when one or more of the following conditions has been met:

  • At most, three colors of tower disks are still in stock.
  • No gold remains above any district card.
  • No citizen die of the proper color can be added to the citizen offer.
  • A player has moved all three of their zodiac disks to the top space of each temple track.

The temple area is divided into three tracks: the sea temple, the forest temple, and the mountain temple. You score points only for your two least-valued temples, and once all the points have been summed, whoever has the most VPs wins.
