The Glass Route is a game that commemorates the 700-year-old tradition of glass making in the Bavarian forest (today, the Glass Route is a route through the Bavarian forest that leads visitors to the old glass houses and museums of this region). You must skillfully manage your glass and brick production in order to build the right structures that will help you maintain the fluidity of your business. Cut down the forest so that fires continue to burn in the ovens, spread and remove ponds, pits and groves to provide you with the items you need. Fifteen specialists are at your side to execute your orders.......
The game consists of four construction periods. Each player has an identical deck of fifteen specialist cards, and each specialist has two abilities. At the beginning of each construction period, each player must choose a hand of five specialists. If he plays a specialist that no other player has in hand yet, he can use both abilities of this card; if two or more players play the same specialist, each of them can only use one of the two abilities. By using the skills of specialists, you can collect resources, develop new landscape tiles (ponds and pits) and build a variety of buildings.
There are three types of buildings: Treatment buildings, Immediate buildings with a one-time effect, Buildings that provide bonus points at the end of the game for various achievements. Mastering the balance between knowledge of the best specialized card to play and flexibility as to when you play it - with the assembly of an intelligent combination of buildings - is the key to this game.
