About the game
The Moirai (often called The Three Fates in English) are goddesses from Greek mythology. They have set their spinning wheel in motion to weave the destiny of humankind. Clotho spins together the thread of life, Lachesis uses her rod to measure the lengths of that thread, and Atropos is in charge of deciding when to cut a soul’s thread. As commanded by the three Moirai, the players must create a loom with cards in which various lives will be woven together. On their turn, players choose to keep a card or take an entire discarded pile and place all those cards in their loom. At the end of Moirai, the players score points according to the scoring criteria of Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos cards. Whoever does the best wins. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Moirai supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Moirai is 20–30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Moirai for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Moirai has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
