Product description
Isle of Skye, one of the most beautiful places in the world: Soft sand beaches, gently sloping hills, impressive mountains: the landscape of Isle of Skye is breathtaking and fascinates everyone.
In this tile-laying game 2 to 5 players are the chieftains of 5 famous clans. The players try to build their little kingdoms to score as many points as possible. But in each game only 4 of the 16 scoring cards will be scored. Each game is different and leads to different tactics and strategies.
To have enough money is useful in all games: In each turn the players can buy a tile from another player. The seller determines the price, but to do it wisely is the most interesting part of this game: A high price will lead to wealth, if someone buys this tile, but if there’s no buyer, the seller will lose the money spend on this tile.
And in the end the player with the best kingdom will become the sovereign of the island, not the richest player!
Isle of Skye is a gateway game for the whole family. With a playing time around 45 minutes , a huge variability and easy rules it’s a perfect game for all players. The awesome illustrations by Klemens Franz brings all the athmosphere of the scottish island on your table.
