Skara Brae Board Game

Around five thousand years ago, a resilient group of farmers and hunters built a thriving community on the Orkney Islands of Northern Scotland. Rather than discarding their empty shells, broken tools, bones, and other waste, they used them to form large mounds of earth over hundreds of years. Later generations dug into these midden piles to create a series of rooms and tunnels to shelter from the harsh winds and cold winter months.The aim of Skara Brae is to gather various Resources in order to feed, clothe, and shelter the growing number of Settlers. Players take turns drafting Village Cards and using their Workers to Furnish, Cook, Craft, Clean, and Trade. At the end of each Round, players need to provide for their Settlers and will likely create more Midden that needs to be cleaned up. After 4 Rounds, the player with the most Victory Points (VP) wins.FeaturesDevelop a village in this resource management game with unique inventory balancing mechanics giving this game a fresh twist!Gather various Resources in order to feed, clothe, and shelter the growing number of Settlers.Asymmetric action tiles provide a broad range of variability between players.Great pacing and a natural escalation as each game unfolds.A wide variety of strategies to discover in this game for 1-4 players.Contents Summary4 Player Boards36 Standard Action Tiles8 Special Action Tiles1 Turn Order Tile4 Sliders5 Extra Storage Tiles80 Villager Cards40 Roof Cards10 Spindle Whorl Cards8 Focus Cards10 Task Cards4 Turn Markers4 Large Workers15 Small Workers4 Furnish Markers4 Trade Makers3 Boar25 Shells25 Barley25 Seaweed25 Wool25 Wood25 Hides25 Bones16 Rabbits16 Fish12 Sheep12 Deer12 Cows25 Skaill Knives40 Food40 Midden1 RulebookAt a Glance:Number of Players: 1-4For Ages: 13+Playing Time: 60 minGame Type: Strategy Euro Game
