About the Game

From the designer's website:

Xochintlan means 'garden' in Nahuatl, former language of the Aztecs. If this game existed 600 years ago I bet you it would have been a real hit on the Mexican High Plateau.

In the deep Mexican Country The Human live surrounded by animals. The Monkeys (Ozomatli), the Lizards (Cuetzpallin) and the Birds (Quetzalli) try to settle close to Him to find food and entertainment.

Unfortunately The Human will not be able to take care of all the animals at the same time.

Which one of the three species will succeed in settling with the human : the mischievous Monkeys, the silent Lizards or the musician Birds?

In this game, players will be part of this legend by taking over the Animals' destinies and plan their settlement next to The Human.
