Reiner Knizia Designer Series
Reiner Knizia, a PhD in mathematics started publishing his first games in 1990. Since then he has been one of the world's most prolific game designers with more than 600 games and books published in numerous languages and countries including many global licences such as Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, LEGO, Mensa, Disney, Monopoly, Playmobil, Simpsons, Asterix, Star Trek and Star Wars. He is particularly notable for his auction trilogy and his tile-laying trilogy.
Indigo is a tile-laying game along the lines of Metro, Tsuro and Linie 1 in which players build paths bit by bit, with no player owning the individual paths and everyone trying to exploit the paths already present. Unlike those earlier games, however, your goal is to move gemstones from their starting locations on the board to your designated goals, with the player who scores the most points winning the game.
