By: 3 Minute Board Games

Azul is a vibrant game where 2 to 4 players compete to become the master artists of Portugal's Royal Palace of Evora by building the most impressive tile collection. The king has declared the palace dull after a trip to Spain, and the players, as artists, have to draft and place brightly colored tiles to decorate the palace with radiant patterns. The gameplay, which lasts around 30 minutes, involves strategic decision-making and player interaction.

Players draft from a shared pool of tiles, aim to line them up strategically on their display, and score points based on their placement. Over-selection of tiles is penalized heavily, hence decision-making around draft and placement becomes crucial and nuanced. Being an abstract game, Azul magnificently elevates the tension as the game progresses with its underlying simplicity yet demanding logistical dynamics. However, those seeking immersive adventures or pressure-free casual gaming might not favor Azul. The game strikes with its high-quality components, visual appeal, and the tactile pleasure of the tiles.
