Step into the role of a guide for the Quechua people, exploring an unknown Andean valley in honor of the goddess Pachamama – Mother Earth. You must uncover different types of terrain and plant suitable crops while respecting the rules of natural harmony, such as diversity, separation of regions, and consistency in crop structure.

A player moves one of their workers (meeple) across the central grid, then uses the Pachamama wheel to reveal the type of landscape on the chosen space. When you choose this action, you guess which crops belong to specific fields. If you guess correctly, you earn points and place a token; an incorrect guess results in a penalty. Terrains are arranged in areas sized from 1 to 5, and each area contains numbered crops. Identical crops must not touch, even diagonally. At the end of each action, you can offer gifts (1–5 cubes) for extra points, but the number of different gifts you can hold is limited. When all terrain tiles have been revealed, divine actions follow. The game continues until all terrain tiles are used, then the final phase begins, and the winner is the player with the most points.

You can play competitively, cooperatively, or solo, which increases flexibility and replayability (20 different scenarios).

Tiwanaku is a refined blend of exploration and logical deduction that delights fans of strategic puzzles.
