Islas Canarias is a game about the settlement of the Canary Islands.

The players draw 3 settler cards from the stock or choose one from their hand to build a house on their island.

For example: 1st priority for the new building is a place near the river, 2nd priority near a red building, 3rd priority near the coast and the 4th priority near a brown building. The player must build the house following this priorities.

The second action of his turn is to put a settler card on the table. This card belongs to the ship.
After every player has done his 2 actions the ship arrives and those cards are played. The building of a card gets the player who fulfills the (highest possible) priority best.
