Colors of Paris

About this board game

Colors of Paris is a management board game for 2–4 players, playable in about 60 minutes, in which you compete as painters in a friendly Montmartre workshop challenge.

The contest takes place at Bateau Lavoir, where several artists pursue the chance to become famous. With the newspapers watching, every decision can contribute to your progress as you follow in the path of celebrated painters such as Cézanne, Toulouse-Lautrec, Monet, or Renoir.

Your success depends on carefully managing the resources and opportunities available to you. Colors of Paris asks you to look after your paint tubes, prepare mixtures, and use your time effectively while working toward the creation of finished works.

• Compete as a painter in a Montmartre workshop
• Manage paint tubes, mixtures, and time
• Create works to pursue recognition and fame
• Anticipate opponents within a rotating set of actions

The action system adds an element of planning and anticipation to the competition. Actions rotate, so you must consider not only what you need to do, but also how other painters may act before you get the opportunity to perform as needed.

Balance your materials, mixtures, and available time as you work toward your artistic goals. The combination of resource management, changing actions, and a shared competitive setting makes Colors of Paris a focused contest for players seeking to establish their name in the Parisian art world.
