Orloj: Step Into Prague’s History

In the heart of Prague’s Old Town, the astronomical clock has been marking time for centuries. Can you add the legendary calendar that will set the rhythm of the city for generations to come?

In Orloj, you play as a master builder competing to complete the astronomical clock’s calendar. Gear by gear, sphere by sphere, demonstrate precision, balance, and knowledge of the cosmos to leave your mark on this medieval masterpiece. Orloj is an expert-level worker-placement game in which every mechanic serves the theme.

How do you play Orloj?

On each turn, place your workers on the clock face to collect resources and perform actions. Use them to build the calendar, recruit assistants, and construct the Apostles’ Carillon. Also, advance your knowledge along three paths: the experience you gain improves your skills as the game progresses. The game ends when the calendar is complete. The player with the most harmony points wins.
