Our next item is up and running. You can check it out and bid on it here. The game is Taluva, a tile-laying game for 2-4 players from Rio Grande Games that was the June 2007 Game of the Month at Hypermind Boardgamers. From their review:

Taluva is a wonderful abstract tile-laying game with an adequately supportive theme. Players presumably take on the roles of gods or tribal chieftains on an isolated volcanic island. The island grows through ever-constant eruptions, while the players seek to lead their chosen people to grow in numbers and influence. The game ends either when all tiles are placed or when one player manages to use all of two different kinds of their pieces.

Additional info and commentary on this book are available at Amazon and Board Game Geek.

"My husband and I love this game... we even purchased it as a gift for friends. 2-4 players and lots of fun. It does have small pieces so watch out for little ones. I would totally reccomend this game."
