Next Move Games Azul - Bilingual English/French (NMG60010ENFR)

By: Rahdo

This review discusses a gameplay runthrough of Azul, a strategy-based tile-lining game set in the palace of the King of Portugal. As local artisans, the players are tasked with adorning the palace with beautiful Moorish tiles, making this a game of both aesthetics and strategy. Gameplay involves choosing tiles from five "factories" or central piles, then strategically placing those tiles in different rooms of the palace to score points. As the game progresses, the choices become more complicated and restrictions more numerous, adding a layer of complexity that keeps things interesting.


An interesting twist occurs when a player's choices could potentially force their opponent to break tiles, due to lack of suitable placement, resulting in the loss of points. The combination of tile placement and placement restrictions, coupled with the ability to impact opponents' points, adds a strategic depth to Azul. On the downside, misjudged turn counts can adversely affect planned strategies. Overall, Azul combines creative aesthetics with strategic gameplay, making it an enjoyable game to play.
