Game: Yucata

This boardgame was invented 1996 by Stefan Dorra and published by Hans-im-Glück Verlag.
ZRF file implementation by Guenther Rosenbaum, November 2001, Version 2.1 (Zillions 1.3(r2) or higher needed).

In the deepest rain forests of Mexico, near the town of Palenque, stands the Mayan Sun temple.
Here in 1995, the famous archaeologist and games expert Stefan Dorra, discovered the remains of an ancient game.
He used these to reconstruct the game, probably last played around 1300 AD.
The spaces on the board of Yucata' exactly match the ground plan of this renowned archaeological site.
The pale and dark stones in the game represent good and evil influences, which the players seek to collect, or avoid by playing their cards.
Probably Yucata’ was played solely by Mayan priests, as part of their ancient rituals, but there aren't many Mayan priests around these days,
so it's probably safe enough to play the game, without any risk of angering the Gods.
