In loose terms Innovation is a Civilization-style game in which players first have access to low-powered cards in age 1 then build up to more powerful cards in later ages stacking new acquisitions on old to build the strength of their holdings Players meld cards score points & take special actions (called "dogma actions") unique to their cards in play in order to claim achievements The first player to claim 4-6 achievements depending on the number of players wins the game Innovation Echoes of the Past changes game play from the base game in a number of ways First there are now two draw decks to get cards from in each age -- players draw Echoes cards or Base cards depending on the contents of their hand Second the maximum player count is increased to five Third & most interestingly Innovation Echoes of the Past introduces new game mechanisms With foreshadow a player can stash a card under his player board then bring it into play (and use it) on a later turn when he melds a card that&s from the same age or a higher one With echo when a player takes the dogma action of a card in play he can receive additional actions showing on that card & any other cards visible in the same stack ...

Innovation Figures in the Sand an expansion for Carl Chudyk&s Innovation breaks from the format of that game by providing players with recognizable figures from history (instead of new inventions or concepts) with those figures showing up on your table to help you win the game – or maybe your opponent Historical figures tend to be somewhat fickle Figures

Includes:: 105 figure cards with the cards being similar to Innovation cards in that they&re divided into ten ages with five colors of cards in each age Instead of including a dogma power that players can use on their turn each card in Figures has a karma that changes the game in some way Karmas might take effect when you meld a card when you&re counting icons to determine whether you can share an action or when you take some other action in the game Instead of melding a card for example you might score it or instead of giving cards to opponents who demand from you you might return cards to the age decks Innovation Figures in the Sand

Includes:: five Decree cards one for each color Decrees are a special type of achievement but unlike all other achievements Decrees are not safe & can be stolen A player can have only one Figure in play after any action in the game; any additional Figures Fade from play moving to your score pile Innovation Figures in the Sand can be played with just the base game or combined with the Innovation Echoes of the Past expansion
