OVERVIEW OF SAINT MALO

Players take on the role of astute city leaders attempting to populate their initially barren cities in order to gain as many points as they can. They accomplish this by rolling the dice, three times per turn. Then students pick a symbol and, using a dry erase marker, draw a matching symbol on the “city plan.”

Adding residents or priests to the game board earns victory points, merchants earn the money, and other beneficial people like architects and nobles must all be carefully studied and properly thought out.

GAMEPLAY

The player who is the youngest takes the field first. He should shade the roofs of the three buildings above his lumber storage to indicate this. The game continues in a clockwise direction until at a player has filled all forty-five spots in their city.

You must roll the dice one time, but you can roll up to three times if needed. After rolling all the dice at once, you can choose as many dice as you want to remain unchanged by setting up to five of the dice aside, choosing to not roll them again. You can now secure some or all of the remaining dice by rolling them a second time. Finally, take a third roll of the dice. Score the dice when you are done rolling.

To score the dice choose a symbol to use. The pirates, or crossed swords, must also be scored. Before scoring, you can flip one or more of the dice to show the symbol you choose. It does cost two coins to rotate a dice.

You can count as many of your symbols as you would like, depending on what reward you would like to earn. You have to count the cross swords that you roll. The number of symbols that you roll cannot be split. You must earn the reward for that number, and you cannot earn numerous rewards for the same roll.

Anything scored must always be placed in an empty space, occupied spaces are unable to be used. Anything may be placed on the outside spaces, whereas the inside spaces can have anything but walls.
