Bacchematica (2019)

This game was attached to issue 11 of the ioGioco magazine. The forest is full of juicy berries and fragrant fruits. Each animal, sniffing the air, listening to the rustle of the leaves and calculating the best routes, tries to reach the richest bushes. But other gluttons target the same succulent fruits. We must hurry, before someone faster blows us under the nose, or better to say under the muzzle, our favorite acorns or the red strawberries. Each turn you draw a bush tile characterized by a value (its position in the woods) and two mathematical operations. Then you turn a "track" piece, which indicates numerical values corresponding to colored positions. The player tries to use the numerical values together with the operations, putting them in the right order on his board to reach a number as close as possible to that of the bush. —user summary
