Great game that we learnt to play in Chance and Counters in Cardiff. It is easy to play and looks good so much so I want to find big tiles to tile my kitchen with!

Azul is a fantastic tile laying game, that despite the lack of any real theme is a pleasure to play. Each round you will take tiles from a central display, taking tiles of one colour only before placing them into a loading area on your player board, if at the end of the round the loading area is full then one of these tiles moves across in to your display and scores points. Scoring chains with other tiles adjacent to the tile you place and continues through the rows and columns - meaning if you play right you will score some good point combos. Easy to pick up but with depth to the gameplay this is well worth a look.

Rarely does a game change in feel so much depending on the number of players: 4 players - entertaining lightweight abstract game; 2 players: intense, aggressive abstract game.

A beautiful game of strategy and planning. I was initially drawn to the game because of how it looks and it's even better in real life - the tiles themselves are satisfyingly solid and fun to hold and play with, as well as being very attractive. It feels like a high quality game. The game itself is reasonably simple to pick up and start playing - my wife and I fumbled through a bit on our first game, but after that we were away starting to make decisions with purpose and developing a bit more of a long term game plan. It works really well with 2 players which we love. Often playing group games with only 2 players feels like a lesser experience than with a full player set, but Azul doesn't lose anything. In fact due to the game length you will probably find yourself playing a few games in a row (it's quite addictive) and starting to plan around your opponents strategies. There's plenty of depth here to keep you interested. I am excited about introducing it to new people and trying a 4 player game soon - I don't think 4 players will change the general gameplay much but will add a little more unpredictability and will probably lengthen game time a little as more of you will be aiming for the same tiles. It's a great game length for after dinner/lazy afternoon games, and doesn't take long to learn so ideal for introducing to new people too.

We have played this 3 times already, simple rules to follow but a lot of strategy. I can see why this won the Spiel Des Jahres.

One of the games, which after I played I was wondering what imagination should have in order to create such an abstract game. My husband is the one to follow the charts and reviews and he told me some people like Azul, others Sagrada and both games "fight" for the first places. In my opinion both are "a must have" games for the collection of the self-respeting board-gamer :)

Azul is a great game for all ages. Easy to pick up and play. It is also a beautiful produced game, the tiles are very tactile with great colours and designs.
