SANKORE: The Pride of Mansa Musa
1-241970
Eurogame for one to four players, following the rise in fortunes of the prestigious University of Sankore in 14th-century Timbuktu. Players must each manage a prestigious school within the Sankore Madrasa -- enrolling and graduating your pupils, teaching classes, adding to your curriculum, and filling the great library with books, you will advance knowledge in four main disciplines: theology, law, mathematics, and astronomy. Once construction of the university is complete, the value that the empire places on each discipline will dramatically affect how you score the knowledge you have passed on.
In a dedicated solo mode, you will be competing against a distinguished and ambitious scholar controlled by an automated system. They may not be as nimble as you, but they are focused and driven and will strive to produce the best possible students.
For Ages 14+; Players: 1-4; and Playing Time: 150-180 minutes.
Contents: Main Board, 4 Player Boards, 260+ Wooden Pieces, 190+ Tokens, and 25+ Cards.
