Sankoré Knowledge & Final Scoring Explained
Sankoré’s distinctive scoring system makes the four academic disciplines worth different amounts based partly on what happened during the game.
Four disciplines
Theology, law, mathematics and astronomy each generate their own knowledge and progress. Do not assume that one knowledge token in every discipline has equal final value.
Discipline importance changes
Player actions and university development influence the final importance/value of each discipline. The table collectively shapes the scoring environment.
Your knowledge position matters
Final scoring combines the discipline’s established importance with how much qualifying knowledge or presence you developed in that field.
Graduated students and university development
Graduation and construction can contribute points directly or feed the knowledge systems that determine final value.
Printed objectives and bonuses
Add any final bonuses from player boards, objectives or university elements included in the base setup.
Endgame timing
When the university reaches the rulebook’s completion condition, finish the prescribed sequence before calculating final scores.
Winner
After all four disciplines and remaining end-game categories are scored, highest VP wins.
