Santorini is a re-imagining of the purely abstract 2004 edition. Since its original inception over 30 years ago, Santorini has been continually developed, enhanced and refined by designer Gordon Hamilton.

Santorini is an accessible strategy game, simple enough for an elementary school classroom while aiming to provide gameplay depth and content for hardcore gamers to explore, The rules are simple. Each turn consists of 2 steps:

1. Move - move one of your builders into a neighboring space. You may move your Builder Pawn on the same level, step-up one level, or step down any number of levels.

2. Build - Then construct a building level adjacent to the builder you moved. When building on top of the third level, place a dome instead, removing that space from play.

Winning the game - If either of your builders reaches the third level, you win.

Variable player powers - What makes Santorini truly special is its seamless integration of variable player powers into a pure-strategy game. Dr Hamilton has designed over 40 thematic god and hero powers, each fundamentally changing the way the game is played.

Very solid 2 player game

Nothing you probably haven't heard/read before about Santorini - the rules are pretty straightforward and easy to grasp. You can be up and playing in minutes. Games are relatively short and can involve some hidden depth to the strategies used. My wife, who isn't fond of strategy games isn't a huge fan but I find it to be a very good game and a great addition to the collection.

Some of the best components in board gaming

I can't speak positively enough on how satisfying it is to place these chunky plastic buildings over and over again over the course of playing of a game. The God powers are a great add-on and guarantee no two games will be alike.

Modern-day Chess with a twist

Great abstract game. Beautiful components. It's like chess but you can add different characters with special powers.

My 7-year old love this game!

Last night my 7-year old kid learned this game in 5 minutes then we played 3 rounds and she wanted to play more (me too!) but it was too late so we had to stop. This game is so fun and challenging, we definitely enjoy playing this game!

Great strategy game

Love this game, but prefer to play without the special God powers because sometimes they can be overpowering and one player has a very clear advantage over the other player.
