Quick Help

😡 Account issue? Contact Board Game Arena support regarding ELO, karma, penalties, reputation, etc.

🧊 Slow 3D performance? Not a bug. Taluva uses an older, inefficient 3D technology which does not work well on mobile devices. It is strongly recommend to play on a desktop.

🪲 Other game issue? View and report bugs in Taluva.

Overview

  • Players take turns to place volcano tiles and settlements on an island emerging in the South Pacific.
  • The first player to build all their buildings of two types wins.

Tile: 3 hexagonal spaces; one Volcano​ and two other terrain types from: Jungle​, Clearing​, Sand​, Rock​, Lake​.

Buildings: temples Temple​, towers Tower​, and huts Hut​

Settlement: a group of one or more buildings of the same colour on adjacent spaces.

Setup

  • Each player receives Temple3, Tower2, and Hut20.
  • 12 tiles per player are shuffled face-down into a draw pile.

Game play

Tile placement

  • A tile is randomly selected.
  • Select the space and orientation of Volcano​.

Expand the landscape

Place the tile touching at least one edge of an existing 1st-level tile.

Volcanic eruption

  • Place the Volcano​ on top of an existing Volcano​.
  • Must have Volcano​ in a different direction.
  • Must have spaces under both its terrain spaces.
  • Any Hut​ covered are destroyed and remain out of play.
  • Cannot destroy Temple​, Tower​ or an entire settlement.

Building placement

Place buildings on empty terrain space(s) of any one terrain type (not Volcano​).

Build a Hut

  • Place Hut1 on a 1st-level space not adjacent to any of your existing settlements.

Build a Temple

  • Place Temple1 adjacent to one of your existing settlements that occupies at least 3 spaces.
  • Existing settlement must not already have a Temple​.

Build a Tower

  • Place Tower1 adjacent to one of your existing settlements and on a 3rd-level (or higher) space.
  • Existing settlement must not already have a Tower​.

Expand a settlement

  • Place Hut​ adjacent to one of your existing settlements on all spaces of that terrain type.
  • 1st-level ⇨ Hut1, 2nd-level ⇨ Hut2, 3rd-level ⇨ Hut3 etc.
  • Cannot build more Hut​ than available.
Example
Expand one settlement into all Sand​:

Note
Two settlements may join such that there are > Temple1 or > Tower1 in the same settlement.

Game end

  • The first player to build all buildings of two types wins immediately.
  • Otherwise the game ends when there are no more tiles to play.

Tiebreaks

  1. Most Temple​
  2. Most Tower​
  3. Most Hut​

BGA tiebreak score = 1000 points / Temple​ + 100 points / Tower​ + 1 point / Hut​
