Overview

You're now part of the School of High Alchemy, but you still have a long path ahead of you, a path that can lead to wisdom, yet a path which is laden with pitfalls and threats that will test you in ways that you can't even imagine. Work hard. Learn to control the elements. Study each recipe and combination, no matter how impossible they may seem. Face your worst fears. And trust fortune as well because it's wise to admit that not everything is in your hands. That's the only true way to become an alchemist. In each turn of Los Aprendices, players throw all their dice at the same time to get resources. With these resources, they place their tokens in one or more of the six boards on the table, and on these boards they can get abilities or knowledge (depending on the area the player wants to develop). The game is all about gaining resources, using the abilities to transform them into other resources (or multiply them), and rising in the different boards to gain as much knowledge as possible. When a player has more than 42 victory points, that triggers the last round, then whoever has the most points wins. Your knowledge and intelligence will be the key to your becoming the next alchemist! Ahora sois aprendices y os queda un largo camino por delante. Un camino de conocimiento que estará lleno de trampas, de amenazas que no imagináis todavía y que os pondrá a prueba. Esforzaos. Aprended a dominar los elementos. Memorizad cada fórmula, cada combinación posible o imposible. Plantad cara a vuestros miedos. Confiad, también, en la suerte porque es prudente reconocer que no todo está en nuestras manos. Sólo así os convertiréis en alquimistas. El primer jugador que llegue o supere los 42 puntos de conocimiento cierra la última ronda. El que tenga más puntos en la última ronda gana. Al principio de cada turno, los jugadores tirarán sus dados para obtener recursos según sus resultados. Con estos recursos se colocarán en los tableros que más les interesen. En cada una se obtendrán más conocimiento o más habilidades (según el campo que cada jugador quiera desarrollar). El mecanismo del juego consiste en obtener recursos, usar las habilidades para transformarlos en nuevos elementos (o bien multiplicarlos) e ir ascendiendo en los distintas tableros para obtener tanto conocimiento como puedan. Los Aprendices es un juego en el que tendréis que usar vuestros conocimientos e inteligencia para convertiros en alquimistas.
