Table feel

Monasterium has a moderate level of direct confrontation and strategic depth in confrontation. Players need to frequently pay attention to and react to each other's strategies. However, the game does not emphasize cooperation as much.

Replay value

Monasterium offers a high level of variability with its gameboard and expansions, allowing for different experiences each time it is played. The strategic depth and scalability further enhance the replay value. While it may take some time to learn, the game offers a rewarding and engaging experience for players.

Luck profile

Monasterium has a moderate level of luck influence. Random elements have a notable but not exclusive impact on the game outcome. Players have substantial ability to mitigate randomness through strategic decisions and planning. The game outcome is primarily determined by player strategy and decisions, with luck playing a minor role.

Overview

In the early Middle Ages, the peak of ecclesiastical power, no fewer than five monasteries were founded in a beautiful valley with the aim of spreading the Word of God. As the dean of a cathedral school, you try to accommodate the novices entrusted to you in the monasteries, thus building up an unmistakable reputation. According to your talents, you send novices to monastery buildings, to the chapel, or to the cloister. The intercession of influential personalities or other monks should not be underestimated. You can also fulfill the special missions of the monasteries and build on the stained-glass windows of your cathedral to enhance the fame of your school. After the three-year novitiate, it will become clear who has been able to earn the most fame and glory with their helpers. Monasterium (which is Latin for "Monastery") is a strategic game with an innovative dice mechanism that presents the players with ever new challenges. The game includes a double-sided game board: one side for the game for two and one side for 3-4 players.
