Hello everyone !
Today we're going to talk about Hellapagos!
It's up to you to do everything you can, from 3 to 12 players aged 10 and over for 30 to 60 minutes, to escape the island you survived on before the storm destroys it!
Hellapagos is a "co-opetition" game in which players struggle to survive on a desert island and build a raft to escape before a hurricane devastates them. While players need to work together, it's not likely that everyone will survive this backstabbing negotiation game for up to twelve players.
After becoming shipwrecked, your group of castaways finds themselves on a desert island. At first, the surroundings seem like paradise, but life soon proves difficult. Water and food are scarce. It’s doubtful whether everyone can survive this diet.
There is only one solution: Construct a large raft together. But don’t waste any time, because the clouds on the horizon suggest the arrival of a dangerous hurricane!
After your ship sinks, your group of survivors finds themselves on a desert island where water and food are scarce. The only solution to escape this nightmare is to build a large raft together to take the survivors on board, but time is running out because a hurricane is on the horizon...
Each turn, the shipwrecked players will have to choose one of four actions: fishing, collecting water, looking for wood or searching the wreck of the ship.
Team up to survive but be prepared to sacrifice your comrades in the event of a shortage.
An almost cooperative game where you will have to be as deceitful as diplomatic to guarantee yourself a place on the return trip!!
In this cooperative game, each turn takes place in a strict order. First, the change of the first player. Except in the first round, the first player card will pass into the hands of the person to the right of the player who had it in the previous round.
Then a weather card is drawn, this is used when collecting water. Indeed, when a bright sun shines it is impossible to collect water. After that, it is the players' turn, they will be able to perform one of the four possible actions.
To catch a fish, the player will have to draw a ball from the bag and advance the food token according to the number of fish indicated on it.
Unless it is very sunny, it is possible to advance the water token according to the number indicated on the weather card.
The player must advance the wood token one step and decides to draw (or not) one or more additional balls from the bag. If the black ball does not appear the player can advance as many spaces as balls drawn, otherwise he will be bitten by the snake and will be poisoned.
The player draws a wreck card and adds it to his hand.
Last step, the survival of the castaways. You will have to count the water and food. Starting with the water, you will have to move the pawns back by the same number as there are players. Be careful, if there is not enough water or food, a vote will be held to see who will survive.
To win the game, you must have left the island alive before drawing the hurricane card from the weather deck. At the end of the game, the players who manage to leave the island in time will win (assuming anyone survives that long!).
Good day and good game ;)
