Golem
Golem is the award-winning strategy game for 2-4 players designed by Justin D. Jacobson. Players take the role of wizards vying for control over a golem loose in the city. Winner of the 2004 Shared Pieces Design Competition¸ Golem features a unique shared-piece mechanic in which the players bid for control of the golem's movement¸ trying to harvest charms and foist curses upon their opponents. Along the way¸ players may gain control of powerful artifacts¸ such as the Amulet of Loki¸ that can change the game in an instant. With its modular board¸ Golem is never the same game twice. Golem features the haunting artwork of Niklas Brandt.
