Wutaki is a middle weight worker placement game by Hodari Spiele (Germany). There is turmoil in the little village called Wutaki. The villagers believe they angered the giant monster, which they worship as their god, and thus the big volcano is going to erupt. To soothe the monster the village elders will send out workers to collect resources to be sacrificed later fulfilling powerful pacts. Each village elder is wielding power over an elemental tower, which element responds to certain pacts to gain more rewards. Beware of the other elders and their powerful omen cards which they will use to bring your reign to an end. Use your power for good or let the world of Wutaki burn. You decide! —description from the desiger
