Overview

Based on the famous novel from Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote is a fast game of wit and strategy. Discover how Alonso Quijano became Don Quixote, how he asked a tavern host to make him a knight, the famous encounter with windmills turning into giants, his quest for Dulcinea's love and many more! Throughout the game, you will explore the stories told in the masterpiece that Miguel de Cervantes created. It's a great way to learn about this beautiful work and its message, while having fun.

Each round, the ingenious Don Quixote will head for a new adventure, and players vote simultaneously on whether to help him or not. Success in an adventure means Don Quixote progresses on his quest towards glory or love, while failure increases his delusion.

The twist: the more the knight progresses in one track, the more valuable your contributions to that track are, in a set collection mechanics where sets change value dynamically. Can you outwit the other players, anticipating what their next move will be, while not giving away your focus?

At the end of the game, you will score points for achieving your personal secretive objective. Each character you played is associated with one of DQ's attributes, and it will also score you bonus points depending on its value.
