Object of the Game

Players play as scions of powerful noble families trying to achieve everlasting glory while planning the construction of Teotihuacan.

Earn victory points in many ways: seek the favor of the gods, be the greatest architect of the pyramid, and have the most prestigious plots along the Avenue of the Dead! May the gods help you win! …

Palace (1)

The Palace (1) Action Board does NOT have a Main action. When moving a worker here, you may only place it on a Royal tile to take a Worship action or in the general area to take a Collect Cocoa action.

Pay 1 cocoa to receive 1 wood and 1 stone. You may do this up to as many times as the power of the locked worker.

Score 2 Victory Points each for whichever is lower: your position on the Pyramid track, or the power of the locked worker. …

Note on difficulty: the rules as written are tested against experienced players and provide a beatable challenge.

If it is your first game and you want a slightly less challenging experience, feel free to use any number of the difficulty adjustments listed at the end of the solo rules.

Starting Tile Draft Variant

Once you have played Teotihuacan a few times, you may want to use an alternative method of receiving your Starting tiles.

Please note, however, that this variant is recommended only for players with both a solid grasp of the rules and enough experience to be able to form a strategy from the first moments of the game.
