Master Lio at a five-by-five Lioza wall with five loose stones scattered on the wooden table

Five by five. One of each stone per row and column.

One turn tells the whole story

Draft. Lay. Score.

The rules fit into a first round. The decisions take much longer to leave your head.

  1. Draft from the same table

    Take every stone of one color from a factory. The rest slide into the center, where the choices get sharper.

  2. Build one pattern line

    Lay the stones into a single row. Fill it cleanly, because anything that spills to the floor costs points.

  3. Set one stone into your wall

    Completed lines place one stone into the mosaic. Connected stones score together; rows, columns, and full sets finish the job.

The quiet part is the dangerous part

Every pick is a small knife.

You are never only building your own wall. The stone you take is the stone your rival cannot.

Born from Lisbon’s streets

Five minerals. One mosaic.

Lioza takes its name from pedra lioz, the pale royal stone laid beside dark basalt by Portugal’s calceteiros. Stone by stone, a pavement becomes a pattern worth walking across.

Every color carries its own emblem, so the board stays readable in sunlight, in dark mode, and without color.

  1. Ochre
  2. Iron red
  3. Verdigris
  4. Cobalt
  5. Basalt

Before the first draft

Fair questions.

Everything worth knowing before you take the first stone.

Lioza is a stone-drafting strategy board game for one to four players. You draft colored stones from shared factories, complete pattern lines, and score connected stones in a five-by-five wall.
