Canvas - EN | Board Game

Canvas is a creative and strategic board game where players become painters competing in an art competition. The goal is to collect and layer transparent Art cards to create unique paintings, each with its own combination of artwork and scoring icons. The way you layer your cards determines which icons are visible, making every painting a new puzzle to solve.
