Vaalbara (Studio H Games/Hachette Board Games)An interesting looking light strategy game is arriving in the U.S. early next year from Studio H Games and Hachette Board Games. Utilizing identical twelve card decks, representing tribe members, players will look to lead their Neolithic clans to glory in Vaalbara. The game is for two to five players, ages 10+, and plays in around 20 minutes. Official MSRP is not available yet but Vaalbara is slated for a Q2 release and, based on the European release pricing, will probably carry an MSRP in the neighborhood of $19.99.

About the game:

Each player plays as a clan leader and has to secretly and wisely play a card from their hand, representing a member of their tribe, to try to take over some territories. Strategy and timing will be crucial for scoring! The player that scores the most points after 9 rounds wins the game.

Subcontinent of Vaalbara, Neolithic era. Your tribe sets out to explore uncharted lands in order to establish sedentary villages. Use the various talents of your tribe to optimize your development, expand your territory and enforce your hegemony!

All players have the same deck of 12 cards representing the members of their tribe. Each turn, players choose secretly one card. In the order of initiative of the revealed Characters, players will be able to activate their powers and take over one of the available Territories. Each type of Territory has its own way of scoring points (collection, pair, diversity, risk…). Deciding between playing the best powers and high initiatives at the most opportune moment will be difficult. After 9 rounds, the player with the most points wins the game and unites the tribes of the continent under their banner!
