Description

The Cordel is one of the most remarkable literary genres of Brazilian literature, and its writers, the "cordelistas", lead a poetic life, but also very common. In Cordel, you will be a "cordelista", who builds his life by obtaining and managing inspirations, used to write his "cordels" and take them to the popular fair, marking his captive presence in the line of "cordels".

On the other hand, a "cordelista" is also fundamentally a reader, so you will buy other players' "cordels" for your collection. The best "cordelista" will be the one who can be present with its "cordels" on the clothesline, building patterns of string color sequences, and also obtaining a diverse collection of them. To do this, you must manage your actions well, so you can complete your goals before the others.

In their turn, each player has action points, which can be spent writing cordels (spending inspiration), publishing them, buying cordels from other writers, completing goals or collecting new inspirations. Goals are the key to the game, as the victory points guaranteed by it make up the bulk of the final score. Among these objectives, there are 3 categories: the color standards of the cordels on the poles, the presence of players on the poles and the collection of cordels.

The match ends when one of the players reaches a certain number of goals, then the points are scored for the completed goals and other smaller forms of the score. The one who gets the most points at the end will win.
