A floor as beautiful as in Portugal – Diepresse.com

Since « Azul », the game of 2018, the wall tiles of Portugal have conquered the game boards with their winding, often floral ornaments. « Azul » not only followed many sequels, but also countless similar plates. They are all nice, a bit meditative too. On the one hand, however, it is not easy to get something new, and on the other hand it may not be necessary. So I was curious and also a little skeptical when the typical ornaments from the box of the game « Calçada » shone towards me. Instead of the wall tiles, it is the pavement, called Calçada Portugeues, for which the country on the western tip of Europe is almost as famous.

The mechanism is simple and original. All players have a board on which districts are depicted with numbered fields. Stones are in five colors on a roundell. Depending on which color you choose and how many other stones are still available in the respective round field, you can take a tile from the display and place it on a numbered district field. If a district is full, it will be rated equally.
