About this deal

It is a game with a mix of strategy and luck and the aim of the game is to score the most points for your tile placing.

The new Azul mini helps keep things secure whist you’re travelling by storing everything in a blue Azul branded fabric mini tote bag which can be used to transport the game on its own or can be fitted back into the cardboard box for extra security. The mechanics of the game are simple to understand, making it accessible to both children and adults.Azul Mini | The Gaming CircusThe original game of Azul has been shrunk and is now perfect for travelling with! Players score an extra 5 points for any completed rows, an extra 7 points for completed columns and an extra 10 points if you have completed a colour collection. Player boards are smaller and come with studs to hold the tiles on during play as well as black plastic sliders at the top of the board to keep the score.

The quality of the components and thought which has gone into making this travel sized version make this a must own mini game! The Mini version comes with thinner and smaller tiles which have a cut-out part on the back of tile to connect it to the studs on the player board. This is a great little compact version of one of my favourite quick games to play with family and friends which I often bring on trips anyway. Designed by the world famous, Michael Kiesling and illustrated by acclaimed artist, Chris Quilliams, Azul invites players to Portugal where as a master artisan, the aim is to create a mosiac fit for a monarch!

Azul Mini is not a pocket sized edition of the classic tile-laying board game – but it does fit into a bag, according to Plan B’s Facebook announcement made Tuesday, which suggests you take it on your next vacation. By carefully drafting the correct quantity and style of tiles, the most clever of artisans plan ahead to maximize the beauty of their work (not to mention their scores! To keep a note of your score in this mini edition you move the black sliders at the top of the board. The announcement does come with a size comparison, however, so you can see how the new version stacks up against the old. Designed by the world famous, award winning game author Michael Kiesling, Azul evokes the beautiful aesthetics of Moorish art in a contemporary board game.

If in future turns you pick up more tiles of that colour you can add them to an incomplete row to complete it but any extra tiles need to be placed in the row at the bottom right from right to left, these lose you points. Join the community and come discuss games like Codenames, Wingspan, Brass, and all your other favorite games! This is not always necessarily the player who ended the game as the end game scoring can boost other players scores.I do not have azul yet, and wonder if the mini version is good, or if the normal version is a better choice. Later in the round, players score points based on how they've placed their tiles to decorate the palace. We have a great selection of board and card games for all and are always happy to offer recommediations too!

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The goal of Azul is to complete in the best way possible your display board, earning points as you place tiles and create patterns. Each turn, players choose a colour and take all tiles of that colour from one of the factories or from the middle pile if there are tiles there.Themed around decorating a palace with colourful tiles, Azul disguises a viciously competitive drafting game behind an unassuming exterior. This could be just one tile on a factory or all the tiles on a factory if they happen to be all the same colour! Players must carefully consider which tiles to draft and where to place them on their player boards to maximize their score and prevent penalties. Plastic overlays for the player boards with integrated sliding scoring markers are included, so you can even play this edition on a moving train, plane or boat.
