In Azure, players position their stones to gather qi (cards) and wisdom (points) from the realm.

They also compete to bring the Auspicious Beasts to their aid. The first player to reach the end of the path of wisdom wins.

Players take turns placing a stone, gathering boons from the space they cover, and gaining the favor of Auspicious Beasts.

In order to place a stone in a space, the player must be able to pay the qi cost. The color of the domain (board) tells you the color of qi needed, and the number of boon symbols in the space tells you the amount of qi needed.

Through careful management of the qi cards in your hand, you'll be able to grow in power.

Thanks to the four double-sided boards that can be connected, flipped, and oriented in any way in a 2×2 grid, Azure features over 10,000 different layouts.

Azure also includes the Gifted module for experienced players — a variable one-time-use ability that can help turn the tide in your favor.
