  1. 8.6 out of 10

    This game is really a blast, and the scoring mechanisms that shift from game to game (and round to round) make this game feel super fresh every play. My wife and I really dislike auction mechanisms in games but we find that setting the price for tiles, while somewhat auction-y, doesn't bother us a bit.

    A relaxed tile laying game, where pricing your tiles is a nice challenge. Leaving yourself enough money to buy tiles without leaving yours too cheap. Some of the scoring tiles are more interesting than others, but they add a lot of replayability.

    Excelente jogo com tantas maneira de pontuar que nenhum jogo deve ser igual a outro. As estratégias envolvem bastante pensamento geométrico e a interação funciona muito bem com os leilões.

Be the first to review “Isle of Skye: From Chieftain to King”

Isle of Skye is one of the most beautiful places in the world, with soft sand beaches, gently sloping hills, and impressive mountains. The landscape of Isle of Skye is breathtaking and fascinates everyone.

In the tile-laying game Isle of Skye: From Chieftain to King, 2–5 players are chieftains of famous clans and want to build their kingdoms to score as many points as possible—but in each game only four of the sixteen scoring tiles will be scored.

Thanks to the scoring tiles, each game is different and leads to different tactics and strategies, but having enough money is useful no matter what else is going on. Managing that money can be tricky, though. Each turn, each player places two area tiles in front of them and sets the selling price for the tiles. Setting a high price is great, but only so long as someone actually pays the price because if no one opts to buy, then the seller must buy the tiles at the price they previously requested.

In the end, the player with the best kingdom—and not the richest player—becomes the sovereign of the island.
