Pandemain: Church
In the middle ages, the Church had great influence in European society and the Inquisition, ever vigilant of the faith’s purity, inspired well-deserved fear.
In Pandemain, not only will you have to keep an eye on your rival bakers, but you will also have to keep a decent level of piety and penitence.
This is represented through the penitence track, which aside from offering rewards to the player that reaches certain levels on the track, also brings additional tension to the game: the Inquisitor will travel along this track and, if it surpasses your penitence level, you will get a sambenito (a type of penitential scapular used by the Spanish Inquisition) token, which will affect your final score.
The Church’s approval was so important in medieval society that obtaining it in Pandemain will get you an additional worker, allowing you to perform an extra action every day.
The Church’s location on the board allows you to give offerings, which will earn you varying rewards each turn of the game.
Additionally, the first player visiting the Church each turn can get rid of one sambenito token in their possession, and this will also allow you to alter the game’s order for the next turn, according to the order of visit to this location.
This location has great strategic relevance in the game, and it may go unnoticed at first if you are too focused in baking bread and getting ingredients, but it’s another route to score points and achieve victory in “Pandemain: Traditional Farmers’ Bread”.
