In Canvas, you play as a painter competing in an art competition. Players will collect art cards, layering 3 of them together to create their own unique Painting. Each card contains a piece of artwork as well as a set of icons used during scoring. Icons will be revealed or hidden based on the way players choose to layer the cards making for an exciting puzzle. Paintings are scored based on a set of Scoring cards which will change each game. Once players have created and scored 3 paintings the game ends.

On your turn you may take an Art card or make a painting. Art cards are selected from a row of cards in the center of play. Each of these cards has a cost associated with their position. After selecting an Art card you must pay its cost by placing an Inspiration token on each of the cards to its left. If you do not have enough Inspiration tokens, you may not select that card. Any tokens on the card you have selected are kept for future turns. The far left card costs no Inspiration tokens to take.

If you have three or more Art cards you may chose to make a painting. Select 3 of your art cards, arrange them in any order and then score them by comparing the visible icons on your painting to the Scoring conditions.

Once all player have made 3 paintings the game ends.

The player with the most points wins!

—description from the publisher

Interesting creative concept. We enjoyed building our pictures and enjoying their titles. Have only played it once so far but are looking forward to the next round.

Beautiful game

Great game, easy to play. Beautiful art on the cards.

Excellent condition, fast delivery and a great game!

One of the best welcoming games out there

The simple design and gorgeous artwork make this a perfect game to introduce to someone who hasn't played many board games before. Everyone can appreciate the art they've created, and more experienced people while also enjoy the puzzle arrangement gameplay.

The most beatifully crafted game ever

The box HANGS LIKE A CANVAS on your wall. I mean, the theme and visual style of this game is fantastic.
Perfect for families, light games and openers.
Seconds to teach, set up and play.
Its beautiful designed from the box, to the components to the storage.
If you ever get a change to open this box IRL you are in for a treat, the storage layout is beautiful labelled inside on the bottom box. It comes with card sleeves and a play mat.

You are using your inspiration(currency) to bid on subjects to craft your 3 best paintings. Cards are all transparent and slot into a background canvas with different combinations of colours/compositions and other metrics to score you points based on the randomized point set up.

The art style and your final completed paintings generate their own titles and it's just fun for everyone at the table.

Great game!

A great shedding game where you play poker hands and power cards.

Nightfall Lite but Not Nightfall 2.0

If you liked Nightfall, but thought individual creature combat was too tedious? You'll probably like this.

If you liked Nightfall but thought the game was too slow to ramp up, or too long to finish/hand out all wounds, you'll like this.

If you thought Nightfall's "Private Archive" claims ended to overpower the game based on luck of the draw, you'll like Unchained's 3x3 market grid.
-----
As far as deck builders go, I like Unchained. It will take awhile to really know the card power combos. The symbols look overwhelming at first, but are kind of intuitive once you're used to how the cards work. Combat is total offense vs total defense and result is one fatigue (wound). So no MTG-ish "creature 1 attacks player B and creature 2 takes 3 wounds against player C." It does speed up and simplify the game a lot. The 3x3 card market is brilliant. You can get cards you want and/or clear out cards you don't want your opponents to get. Much more variety of cards to cycle through than 8+2 archives = 10 cards to choose from per game.

Solid 4/5 all around. I'd give 5/5 if there was a happy medium in combat between Nightfall and Unchained. Not as super simplified as Unchained, but not like Nightfall's individual cards combat. Maybe a power on some cards "stays in play after combat" so there's a larger chance of different strategies than "I punch you, you punch me, repeat"
