It is always like a small keynote to release such a tool of fun and entertainment.
The middle of the 17th century was a period of great changes; with the arrival of the scientific method came what we now call the Scientific Revolution. Many great scientists, with their theories and ideas, changed and shaped our perception of the universe: Galileo Galilei, Copernicus, Kepler, Bacon and, above all, Sir Isaac Newton.
In Newton, the players take the role of a young scientist who wants to become one of the great geniuses of this era. To reach their ultimate goal, they travel around Europe, visit universities and cities, study to discover new theories, build new tools and work to earn money.
The game is played over six rounds. Each round, every player plays five cards from their hand, and each played card allows the player to perform one of the many actions of the game. An action can have a variety of effects, which depend on the symbols on the board. At the end of the round, a player can take back all the cards except for one. One card has to remain on the board, which means that you give up one possibility of doing that action, but also that that very action will be carried out with greater strength. Fortunately, you can acquire new cards with additional powers to perform more actions.
After six rounds, you calculate your final score, and the player with the most VP wins.
That's it. No updates, no additional stuff to connect: you can play it right now on #BGA by clicking the link below:

NEWTON: Ko je jabolko opravilo delo ...
Izdaja takšnega orodja za zabavo in razvedrilo je vedno kot majhen uvod.
Sredina 17. stoletja je bila doba velikih sprememb; s prihodom znanstvene metode je prišlo do tega, kar danes imenujemo znanstvena revolucija. Mnogi veliki znanstveniki so s svojimi teorijami in idejami spremenili in oblikovali naše dojemanje vesolja: Galileo Galilei, Kopernik, Kepler, Bacon in predvsem Sir Isaac Newton.
V Newtonu igralci prevzamejo vlogo mladega znanstvenika, ki želi postati eden izmed velikih genijev te dobe. Da bi dosegli svoj končni cilj, potujejo po Evropi, obiskujejo univerze in mesta, študirajo, da bi odkrili nove teorije, gradijo nova orodja in delajo, da bi zaslužili denar.
Igra poteka v šestih krogih. V vsakem krogu vsak igralec odigra pet kart iz svoje roke in vsaka odigrana karta omogoča igralcu, da izvede eno od mnogih dejanj v igri. Akcija ima lahko različne učinke, ki so odvisni od simbolov na tabli. Na koncu kroga lahko igralec vzame nazaj vse karte razen ene. Ena karta mora ostati na plošči, kar pomeni, da se odrečete eni možnosti za to dejanje, hkrati pa tudi, da bo prav to dejanje izvedeno z večjo močjo. Na srečo lahko pridobite nove kartice z dodatnimi močmi za izvajanje več dejanj.
Po šestih krogih izračunate svoj končni rezultat in zmaga igralec z največ VP.
To je to. Brez posodobitev, brez dodatnih stvari za povezovanje: predvajate jo lahko zdaj na #BGA s klikom na spodnjo povezavo:

Prav tako ga lahko igrate sami z načinom SOLO!
Radi bi se zahvalili Cranio Creations kot tudi Simone Luciani & Nestore Mangone za njuno pooblastilo za prenos te igre na splet in za fantastično delo, ki ga je opravil xevizero pri njenem razvoju.
Ampak počakaj, še več je...
Priložena je odlična vadnica (thx Nekonyancer), da se je naučite v hipu, tudi če niste prijavljeni. Kot čarovnija!
