Amritsar: The Golden Temple

Amritsar: The Golden Temple

Amritsar, India is home to The Golden Temple or Harmandir Sahib. This spectacular building is world-renowned as a sacred place for the Sikh community and one of the most famous pilgrimage destinations on Earth. After being demolished several times, at start of the 19th century, Maharaja Ranjit Singh rebuilt it using marble, copper and 750 kilos of pure gold, hence its name.

In Amritsar, the players will represent the different personalities of the time who helped the Maharaja of the Sikh Empire with the reconstruction of the Golden Temple. Using a clever mechanic based on the sowing system of the classic mancala games, players will use their different workers and their very own elephant to carry out the necessary tasks. Their actions will allow them to make donations to the Temple in the hope of getting more prestige points than the others.
