Azul is a multiple award-winning, tile-placement game. The goal of Azul is to complete your display board, earning points as you place tiles and create patterns.
Loaded with high-quality components, Azul catches the eye and engages players with its beautiful art, clear graphic design, and colorful resin tile pieces.
Azul offers simple rules but meaningful choices making it easy to learn while offering a subtle depth to every turn! It’s perfect for families and veteran gamers of Plan B Games UNBOX .
On your turn, you’ll select tiles from one of the available market discs. However, when selecting, you must take all matching tiles from that disc.
Next, you’ll select a row to add the tiles you’ve collected to. This prepares the tiles to be added to the matching row in your display.

I can see why is won the Spiel Des Jahres.
The wife and i used to play Splendor a lot and were looking for a game that is just as fun and plays in a comparatively similar time.
Game is tactical but not heavy and plays quickly 2 player.
One other nice thing is that one does not have to shuffle anything so set up is quite quick.
We have used another cloth bag as the discard bag instead of the box lid as it means the game is set up for the next game straight away.
Also played 4 player and is still just as enjoyable.
Definitely recommend it, your life will be richer for it after the initial price of the game.

I found this game quite original. Although the concept is relatively straightforward there is quite a lot of strategy and tactics to master. I just really enjoy it and want to play it more and more. Once you play the standard format there is an advanced free form version on the reverse of the game board. You can also buy further tile with different designs to take things further.

This is probably the best entry level (in terms of complexity) game that you can play with the widest range of players!
The rules are few and simple and can be taught in less than 5 minutes. The gameplay itself can be played in less than 40 minutes.
The components are high quality and will stand more than 100 replays.
In the short time that we’ve gotten it, we have played it over 20 times. Often 3 games back-to-back-to-back.
It is definitely more expensive than many of the other highly rated games out there: Pandemic, Codenames, Sushi Go, etc.. However, if you already have those titles (you probably do), this is a must-have. If not, take a look at those titles if the £35+ sticker price puts you off.

This game is superb.
It’s quick to set up and teach, and so is great if you haven’t much time and/or don’t want to be referring to the rule book every five minutes.
The concept is amazingly simple, but it soon becomes clear that to win big at Azul requires cunning and planning ahead.
Works well with two players, and is brilliant with four.
Really recommend this.

With the exception of the cardboard factory offering holders, this game is stunning in terms of quality and presentation. I am a sucker for aesthetics and I loved the tiles and the bag they come in. It is straightforward to learn and to teach and makes for an interesting game of strategy. It would be nice if more players could be accommodated but 4 is a good number to get going. Indeed it plays pretty well with 2.
