Welcome to the enchanting world of Terra Mystica, a captivating game where 14 unique peoples thrive across seven diverse landscapes. Each group is deeply connected to its own environment, and to survive and flourish, they must terraform adjacent areas to expand their territories while vying for dominance against rival factions.

This is a game of pure strategy, free from the randomness of luck. Every player embodies one of the 14 groups, requiring clever tactics and foresight to control as much territory as possible while enhancing their people's unique skills. Players can also engage with four intricate religious cults to deepen their strategy and gain significant advantages.

On their turns, players will take actions based on their available resources. The variety of buildings offers numerous paths for development:

  • Dwellings generate more workers to fuel your expansion.
  • Trading Houses facilitate economic growth.
  • Strongholds unlock your group's special abilities.
  • Temples enhance your religious capabilities and boost both terraforming and seafaring skills.

Buildings are not static; they can be upgraded for maximum efficiency! Dwellings can evolve into trading houses, trading houses can transform into strongholds or temples, and a single temple can ascend into a sanctuary. Additionally, players must develop both their terraforming abilities and navigation skills to make full use of the rivers that crisscross their territories.

Venture into different landscapes with their respective unique groups:

  • Desert: Fakirs, Nomads
  • Plains: Halflings, Cultists
  • Swamp: Alchemists, Darklings
  • Lake: Mermaids, Swarmlings
  • Forest: Witches, Auren
  • Mountain: Dwarves, Engineers
  • Wasteland: Giants, Chaos Magicians

In Terra Mystica, proximity between groups can be both advantageous and risky. While being near other factions can provide power boosts, it also complicates your expansion efforts. Will you boldly compete for territory or cleverly strategize to outmaneuver your opponents?

Embark on this epic journey of competition and strategy, and may the most astute ruler emerge victorious!
