I’m the Rules Girl, and this is Splendor, a light Eurogame of jewel crafting for 2-4 players. In Splendor, players are gem merchants, using gem tokens to purchase valuable development cards, and competing with each other to become the most reputable jewel crafter of the Renaissance. If you enjoyed this video, consider liking and subscribing to The Rules Girl for more ultra-concise rules explanations.

You start by setting up the "board" see the very end of the video. But there are blue, green, yellow, and green "land development cards" You want to buy these. Each player gets gems to purchase those cards. How many gems depended on how many people are playing. See end of video. There is one noble per player. And always 5 gold coins. You use your gems to buy land development cards. If you get enough "land" you can use your land development cards to get a noble on your side. You win buy being the first to get to 15 points or more. The cost is shown by the colors on the card. Each gem is also a similar color.

I just played this with my Family and I have a Very Important Question: Can you use the gold token for any other card then the Reserve Card that you grabbed it for?

@MartialNico 5 жыл бұрын

It's been awhile, so you probably know this by now: but yes. You can reserve a card to get a gold token. You can then spend that gold token on any card (not just on the one you reserved).

@ILoveMaths07 Жыл бұрын

But what happens to the reserved card once the gold token is used? It's no longer reserved and must be returned to the cards face up in front of you, right?

@Raikiri8478 Жыл бұрын

@@ILoveMaths07 no , you still need to buy the reserved card with the correspondent gems

Also, just my opinion but I prefer the voice over style from some of the older videos. Not the sound quality or level, but the pitch of your voice? Compare Small World to this one, Small World is perfect, while this one sounds like someone trying really hard to smile and sound happy. It is isn't necessary and a bit distracting. Small World sounds much more natural but still "friendly". :)

great video, only missing that in case of a tie having points with less developments wins the game.

In the event of a Tie, winner goes to whoever has the least amount of cards. (Ive always felt more cards should be the tie-breaker but that isnt the rule)

@TuzzaHD 4 жыл бұрын

I understand almost everything apart from on the pc game it doesn't let you reserve a card that you can afford already with tokens or cards etc. But I do this on the board game version against my partner just to grab a gold coin for a card that I know I'll purchase on my next turn anyway. Is this allowed?

@dcx666 7 жыл бұрын

Good explanation but can't help but noticed that this video sound slower and different then the previous video

@TheRulesGirl 7 жыл бұрын

Good observation! It's still my voice, but we've been trying a couple of new things to try and address feedback from our earlier videos. In your opinion, does it sound better than videos from a few weeks ago, and is it easier to understand? Thanks for the feedback!

@ThePurpleclone 7 жыл бұрын

It sounds like the two videos were recorded in two separate rooms, or you added some foam sound dampeners. I think it's easier to understand because there is no longer an echo in the background. The plosives also seem less extreme. Overall it's a lot clearer

@lotronex 7 жыл бұрын

The audio made this video feel "off" for some reason. I much preferred the cadence of your voice in the previous videos. The older videos are very relaxing, but for some reason whatever happened to the audio feels a little unsettling.

@dcx666 7 жыл бұрын

this is clearer but I much prefer the older version as its more upbeat and has charecter. if the video is too fast we can always replay it anyway.

Let's say there's a stack of 4 black and 3 white gem, and that's all. Can I take 1 black and 1 white gem , even if there is no third color available? Or am I obliged to instead take 2 black?

@TuzzaHD 4 жыл бұрын

just started playing this, the rules are a bit confusing around the reserving a card bit, we've been playing it so that you can reserve a card with a gold token, that gets put to one side next to your cards but the prestige points it wields obviously don't count until you've bought it, but you also can't use the gold token until you've bought it??

@kikimdo 4 жыл бұрын

@coxshoneyqueen3967 4 жыл бұрын

Can you exchange tokens for other colors on your turn? I can’t find this in the rules but the people I play with say you can. Also, can you exchange a token for a gold to reserve? Also is it true you can reserve a card from the draw pile? I saw this on some rules. TYIA!

@barnacles8037 4 жыл бұрын

You cannot trade tokens, but you can reserve the TOP card from the draw pile (sight unseen).
