Description
Project L is a quick puzzle-building game with colorful pieces that won the MinD-Spielepreis in 2022. Each puzzle has a cut-out that you fill with pieces, and for a completed puzzle you get points and a new piece. Starting from small pieces, you build a collection that lets you solve bigger and bigger puzzles.
How to play Project L
On your turn you take three actions. You can take a puzzle from one of the rows, take a new small piece, upgrade one of your pieces to a bigger one, or place a piece in a puzzle. Once per turn you can also use the Master action and place one piece in each of your puzzles. When you complete a puzzle, its pieces return to you, you get a reward, and the puzzle scores you points.
When the black puzzles run out, you play one more round. At the end, unfinished puzzles subtract points. The player with the most points wins.
Why you'll love it
- Every completed puzzle earns you a new piece, so your collection grows from turn to turn.
- The Master action rewards players who work on several puzzles at once.
- The game is easy to follow, as everyone can see all the puzzles and the pieces in the supply.
- You can also play solo against an artificial opponent.
Who is Project L for
The game is for one to four players aged 8 and up and takes 20 to 40 minutes. The rules are simple, and players like it best with two or three. There is no text on the pieces, so it suits the whole family.
What might you not like?
Everyone works on their own puzzles, so there is little contact between players. The game may not be the best fit for those who prefer games with lots of conflict.
