Description

Experience two games in one box, each exploring a different side of ancient Chichén Itzá through hands-on play.

In the first game, work together in Build El Caracol, to construct the great observatory used to study the heavens. Quarry limestone, load the blocks onto your sledges, and haul them to the worksite while dealing with cracked stones and injured workers. Deliver every block and place the observatory to complete the shared achievement.

Then Defeat Xibalba for a very different adventure based on the Maya story of the Hero Twins. Control the Hero Twins or the Xibalbans as you compete in a tabletop version of pitz. Roll to activate players, compare the opposing teams, and send the ball through the raised goal rings. Between games, guide the twins through the six deadly houses of Xibalba, reenacting their trials with physical game pieces and following the legend through its dramatic conclusion.

With cooperative construction, competitive ball play, and story-driven historical mythology, this two-in-one game turns the architecture and traditions of Chichén Itzá into an interactive tabletop experience.
