Canvas

In the Canvas art competition board game, you step into the shoes of a painter vying for victory. Collect art cards and layer three of them to craft your one - of - a - kind paintings. Each card holds a piece of art and a set of icons crucial for scoring. How you layer the cards reveals or hides icons, creating an exciting puzzle. The scoring cards change each game, adding variety. The game wraps up after players create and score three paintings. On your turn, you can either pick an art card or create a painting. Art cards are chosen from a central row, each with a cost based on its position. To take a card, place an inspiration token on cards to its left. If you're short on tokens, you can't select it. Tokens on the chosen card are saved for later. The leftmost card is free. When you have three or more art cards, make a painting. Pick three cards, arrange them as you like, and score by matching visible icons to scoring conditions. Once everyone has made three paintings, the game ends, and the player with the most points wins.

How to use: - Start by understanding that you play as a painter in an art competition. Your goal is to collect art cards and create paintings. - On your turn, you have two options. To pick an art card, look at the row in the center. Check the cost of each card (the leftmost is free). Place inspiration tokens on cards to the left of the one you want to take. If you don't have enough tokens, you can't take that card. Save the tokens on the card you pick for future turns. - When you have three or more art cards, it's time to make a painting. Select three cards and arrange them however you like. Then, score your painting by comparing the visible icons to the scoring conditions. Note: - Always keep track of your inspiration tokens. If you run out, you may not be able to pick the cards you want. - Remember that the scoring cards change each game, so don't rely on the same strategies. Maintenance: - Keep the art cards and scoring cards in a dry place to prevent damage. If the cards get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth.
