Description

Players 2 – 4         Ages 10+         30mins

IELLO’s Biblios is a 30 min card game for 2 to 4 players where each player is trying to make the most famous library through decoration, curation, and collection while balancing their gold coins.

A SUBTLE CARD GAME OF AUCTIONS AND HAND MANAGEMENT

As the head of a medieval monastery, your goal is to assemble the greatest book collection and build the most famous library. To that end, you need to acquire the necessary pigments for decorative lettering, hire the best copyists and reproduce the most precious works.

But you have only a limited amount of gold at your disposal to reach your goal. The trick is to part with the items in your collection at just the right time and to pay the lowest price for the works for which others will envy you. Finally, you must watch out for the bishops, who can ruin your plans on a whim!

In Biblios, victory points are obtained by being ahead in one or more of the following categories: monks, pigments, holy books, manuscripts, and forbidden tomes.
