We have the pleasure today to open Origin for playing on Board Game Arena, a game created by Andrea Mainini and published by Matagot.
Have you ever wondered about the expansion of humanity from Africa to all over the world? In Origin, you get to decide how it took place. Well, with your fellow players, that is. Starting from the cradle of humanity in the heart of Africa, you'll create villages in adjacent regions populated by tribes represented by Tribe Pawns of different characteristics: height (for speed), width (for strength), and color.
The core mechanic of the game is that to evolve (create a new village), the new Pawn must share at least two common characteristics with the Pawn he is placed next to: evolution cannot be too radical! Then existing tribes can also migrate (move to another region) near or far depending on their speed, or swap which means taking over territory controlled by another, weaker tribe. Each time a tribe gets control of a new territory, there is an associated reward depending on the territory's color. You can get cards matching the territory's color (yellow Action cards with an effect applied immediately when played, orange Permanent cards granting you some extra powers, purple Objective cards with conditions to score them) and/or Innovation tiles, necessary to play the Permanent cards. Also, you can get some Hunting and Straits tokens worth some extra points placed on the board at the start of the game.
For a more in depth overview, you can watch this video from the Dice Tower:

Origin is an excellent game, easy to access and profound to play with lots of possibilities (please note that on BGA, it is the full version of the rules that is implemented, not the Junior version). Also, you should know that the Tribe Pawns in the physical version are just gorgeous and really fun to move! If you try and like the game, we are pretty sure that you'll want to get a box just to play with them 🙂
We'd like to thank the publisher Matagot for allowing us to host this great game here, and the developer Elena Laskava (Victoria_La on BGA) who once more made a really impressive adaptation of a great game using BGA studio. By the way, she also created as a side project a quick and easy version of the classic Battleship pen & paper game if you'd like to give it a try (Yes, it's pen & paper, but digital! That's the world we live in! 😁 ). Thanks a lot Elena for all these games!
Now, time to get mankind out of Africa!
人类起源
今天，我们很高兴能在BGA上引进人类起源, 这是一个由Andrea Mainini设计并由Matagot出版的游戏。
你有没有思考过人类从非洲到世界各地的扩展？
在人类起源中, 您可以决定它是如何发生的。
当然, 是和你的队友们一起。
从非洲之心的人类摇篮开始, 您将在相邻的区域中创建由不同特征的部落棋子所代表的部落居住的村庄:高度(用于速度),宽度(用于强度)和颜色。
游戏的核心机制是, 为了演变(创建一个新的村庄), 新的典当必须分享至少两个共同特征与他被放置旁边的典当: 进化不能太激进!
然后, 现有的部落也可以迁移(移动到另一个区域) 近或远取决于他们的速度, 或交换, 这意味着接管由另一个较弱的部落控制的领土。
每当一个部落控制了一个新的领地, 就会有一个相关的奖赏, 这取决于领土的颜色。
您可以获取与区域颜色相匹配的卡 (黄色动作卡, 在播放时立即应用效果, 橙色永久卡授予您一些额外的权力, 紫色目标卡有条件得分) 和/或创新麻将牌, 需要播放永久卡。
此外, 您可以获得一些狩猎和海峡令牌值得在游戏开始时放在棋盘上的额外点。
对于一个更深入的概述, 你可以看这个视频从骰子塔:
起源是一个很好的游戏, 易于访问和深刻的发挥与许多可能性(请注意, 在 BGA, 它是完整版本的规则, 是实施, 而不是初级版本)。 此外, 你应该知道, 在物理版本的部落典当只是华丽和真正的乐趣移动! 如果你尝试和喜欢的游戏, 我们非常肯定, 你会想得到一个框, 只是玩他们
我们要感谢出版商Matagot允许我们在这里主持这场伟大的比赛, 开发者艾琳娜 Laskava (Victoria_La), 他曾在一个伟大的游戏中使用bga 工作室做了一个非常令人印象深刻的改编。 顺便说一下, 她也创建了一个侧面项目的经典战舰笔 & 纸游戏的快速和简单的版本, 如果你想给它一个尝试 (是的, 它的钢笔 & 纸, 但数字! 这就是我们生活的世界!
）.
感谢Elena改编了所有这些游戏！
现在, 是时候让人类离开非洲了!
