Mozaik Review: Quick Take with Tom Vasel

About Mozaïk, from BoardGameGeek:

A game of Mozaïk consists of 9 rounds, during which each player has to create a personal grid of 9 images and 9 words to match as closely as possible. The images must form a 3x3 square, and the words are placed around the square, at the ends of the rows/columns (maximum one word per end). Each word earns more or fewer points depending on its difficulty (easy, medium or difficult) and the number of images in its row/column with which it logically associates. At the end of the game, the player with the most points wins. What makes each Mozaïk game unique and exciting is that players never play in the same order! At the start of each round, players compare the number that appears on the image they wish to play. The player with the lowest number starts, chooses a word from the center of the table, then freely places his or her image and this word in the grid. Then it's the turn of the player with the next highest number. And so on. A coveted word can disappear before its turn... So choose your image carefully, even if it means taking risks! The game also includes a single-player mode in the form of a puzzle to be solved. Perfect for practice! The game is illustrated by a collective of thirty-three artists! -description from the publisher
