Splendor is a token-collecting and card development game. Players are Renaissance merchants trying to buy gem mines, transportation methods, and shops, all to acquire the most Prestige points.
On your turn, you can:
- Collect tokens (gems),
- Purchase and build a card,
- Reserve a card.
If you collect tokens, you can take either three different types of tokens or two tokens of the same type. If you purchase a card, you pay its cost in tokens and add it to your play area. To reserve a card, you place it face down in front of you to build later; this costs one turn, but you also earn gold in the form of a joker token, which you can use as any gem.
All the cards you purchase increase your wealth, as they give you a permanent gem bonus for future purchases. Some cards also offer you Prestige points. To win the game, you must reach 15 Prestige points before your opponents.
