Did you know that the most famous Mayan sites were in places such as Chichén Itzá, in Mexico, Tikal, in Guatemala or Copán in Honduras? You can still find magnificent pyramids there and, now, you can build your own on BGA.
In Yaxha, named after a Guatemalan archeological site, you have to build the most beautiful Mayan pyramid. As you build your pyramid, you can imagine interior chambers with treasures, murals or whatever you think will fit your extraordinary construction; however, let’s be honest for a minute, it is all in your head. Here is how the game really goes…
Each round, you will take three blocks from the supply market and use them to construct your own pyramid. The trick is to arrange them so the blocks of the same color are touching. It will take 10 rounds to complete your construction, and you will score points based on how many of the same color are connected. Why are colors important? Because the painted surface of the pyramids showcased Mayan’s history and mythology.
Yaxha's gameplay offers a tactical challenge without feeling overwhelming. It lets you dive into the history of a fascinating civilization, while competing to dominate the ancient jungle.
Yaxha is a strategy-driven game that immerses players in the rich world of Mayan culture. Make the first step to your pyramid or embrace your inner power and lay down your bricks below:

We would like to thank Baptiste Vaiana, the game designer, and Helvetiq for sharing their Mayan-inspired creation with us. No feathered god was summoned during the building of the BGA version, but it took all of fenadoruk’s talent to build it for us, so thank you.
This is your Wednesday release,
Aim for the top... of the pyramid, until then, as always, take care and play fair!
Yaxha: Må den bedste Maya vinde
Vidste du, at de mest berømte maya-steder lå på steder som Chichén Itzá i Mexico, Tikal i Guatemala eller Copán i Honduras? Du kan stadig finde storslåede pyramider der, og nu kan du bygge dine egne på BGA.
I Yaxha, opkaldt efter et guatemalansk arkæologisk område, skal du bygge den smukkeste mayapyramide. Mens du bygger din pyramide, kan du forestille dig indre kamre med skatte, vægmalerier eller hvad du nu synes vil passe til din ekstraordinære konstruktion; men lad os være ærlige et øjeblik, det hele er i dit hoved. Sådan foregår spillet i virkeligheden…
I hver runde tager du tre klodser fra forsyningsmarkedet og bruger dem til at bygge din egen pyramide. Tricket er at arrangere dem, så klodserne i samme farve rører hinanden. Det tager 10 runder at fuldføre din konstruktion, og du scorer point baseret på, hvor mange klodser af samme farve der er forbundet. Hvorfor er farver vigtige? Fordi pyramidernes malede overflade fremviste mayaernes historie og mytologi.
Yaxhas gameplay tilbyder en taktisk udfordring uden at føles overvældende. Det lader dig dykke ned i historien om en fascinerende civilisation, mens du konkurrerer om at dominere den gamle jungle.
** Yaxha ** er et strategidrevet spil, der fordyber spillerne i den rige verden af mayakultur. Tag det første skridt til din pyramide eller omfavn din indre kraft og læg dine mursten ned nedenfor:

Vi vil gerne takke Baptiste Vaiana, spildesigneren, og Helvetiq for at dele deres maya-inspirerede kreation med os. Der blev ikke tilkaldt nogen fjergud under udviklingen af BGA-versionen, men det krævede alt fenadoruks talent at bygge den for os, så tak.
Dette er din onsdagsudgivelse,
Sigt mod toppen... af pyramiden, indtil da, som altid, pas på dig selv og spil fair!
