About the game
Paso del Brahmán is an abstract board game for two players in which each player represents 3 characters, Brahman, Tiger and Cobra. On each turn, the player must choose a character and perform one or two basic abilities (Walk, Summon) or his special ability (Meditate, Levitate, Bite), with the aim of bringing his Brahman to the opponent's temple or eliminating the rival's. It is a simple game to learn but difficult to master. Paso del Brahmán es un juego de mesa abstracto para dos jugadores en el que cada jugador representará a 3 personajes: Brahmán, Tigre y Cobra.
