Ayar: Children of the Sun is a medium-weight euro game based on the mythical origin of the Inca civilization, combining rich thematic storytelling with innovative mechanics.

The game draws from the legend of Ayar — four sons and four daughters of the sun god Inti and the moon goddess Mama Quille. These divine children were sent to guide the first clans and teach them essential skills for building a civilization. Players take on the role of one of these clans, journeying through the Andes, following the teachings of Ayar, and developing their abilities in agriculture, pottery, weaving, and crafting reed bundles.

The game features several interwoven mechanics:

• Area Majority / Influence – exerting control over different regions on the board.
• Set Collection – gathering sets to progress.
• Point-to-Point Movement – traveling between locations on the map.
• Highest-Lowest Scoring – final scoring is based on the lower of two tracked scoring paths, encouraging balanced development.
• Tile Placement and Worker Placement – strategically placing tiles and workers to gain resources and perform actions.

With Ayar: Children of the Sun, embark on a mystical journey through the Andes and help shape the birth of the Incan civilization. ☀️🌕
