About the game

What is Locus?

In Locus, players compete to earn the most points by filling in their scoresheet. Every turn, players choose a colored shape to draw on their scoresheet. There are five colored areas that score in different ways. Choose carefully to not block yourself and collect as many bonuses as possible to rack up the most points. Gameplay is language independent. —description from the designer
