From BoardGameGeek

Welcome to Nakum It is the last month of Tzolkin, the month of Ajaw in the Mayan calendar. The most sacred month in the city of Nakum and the noble families of the city dispute the favors of the gods. Hunt, harvest, explore and sacrifice the members of your clan to make offerings in the pyramid and thus be the family where the gods shed their glory. You will have to manage your workers and the resources you get to be able to make the offerings that are active in the pyramid, but watch out, some offerings require a human sacrifice that you will have to pay with your workers. Or change those resources in the market to obtain benefits, resources or points of influence. At the end of the game, the family that has accumulated the most points of influence has accumulated between offer letters, market cards, explored tiles and resources in the warehouse. Are you prepared to be the most influential family in Nakum? -description from the designer Bienvenido a Nakum. Es el ultimo mes del Tzolkin, el mes de Ajaw en el calendario maya. El mes más sagrado en la ciudad de Nakum y las nobles familias de la ciudad disputan los favores de los dioses. Caza, cosecha, explora y sacrifica a los miembros de tu clan para hacer ofrendas en la pirámide y así ser la familia donde los dioses derramen su gloria. Tendras que gestionar a tus trabajadores y los recursos que obtengas para poder realizar las ofrendas que esten activas en la pirámide, pero cuidado algunas ofrendas requieren un sacrificio humano que tendrás que pagar con tus trabajadores. O bien cambiar esos recursos en el mercado para obtener beneficios, recursos o puntos de influencia. Al final de la partida ganará la familia que mas puntos de influencia haya acumulado entre cartas de ofrendas, de mercado, losetas exploradas y recursos en el almacen. ¿Estas preparado para ser la familia mas influyente de Nakum? -description from the designer (Spanish)
