  1. 9 out of 10

    Surprising depth yet very simple, every game has been fast and fun so far. Much more strategic than you'd think at first glance. Whatever randomness is very well balanced by the mechanics, it never feels unfair to roll badly, you can always make up for it in cleverness. Wow.

  2. Rise of Tribes is an area control game with a mutual-use dice based action system. If a player chooses to make "grow" strong, then it is strong for everyone, likewise for the other three actions. The cards add bonuses to each player that become the main access to scoring. Unfortunately, the cards are all drawn randomly, so it comes down to being the player who draws a powerful card at the right time while having the right resources. See also: * Catan

    Kickstarter deluxe edition. The game is really well designed and boy, does it look good on the table. Some neat ideas, but it lacks tension and i have never felt excited while playing. The game is more complicated and less complex than it should be. Could use an expansion with advanced rules for combat.

In ancient prehistoric times, you have discovered a new land with plentiful lakes, mountains and forests (and apparently many stone rocks that shall be called dice). Your people can develop new things like basketry or find oxen or simply GROW and conquer.

In Rise of Tribes, players control a tribal faction in prehistoric times looking to GROW, MOVE, GATHER, and LEAD their people. The board is modular, composed of hexes in various terrain types. Each hex has a population limit. Players manage the number of tribe members they place on any one hex to either trigger or avoid conflict.

Each turn the active player rolls two dice, then selects two of the four actions to take – GROW, MOVE, GATHER, and/or LEAD. Each action is resolved one action at a time. The power of each action taken depends on the die roll plus the last couple of dice placed onto the action board on the selected action by other players. Once both actions are taken, the active player resolves any Conflicts. The final step of each turn is the time to build villages and complete goal cards.

Victory is possible in a couple ways: gathering resources to build villages and/or completing development and achievement goal cards for your civilization. Villages (limited to 1 per hex) score 1 point for the tribe that built them at the start of that tribe’s turn. Goal cards will score points immediately when completed. Every tribe’s ambition is to score 15 points. The tribe to score 15 points first wins the game.

Solo mode, with the addition of Rise of Tribes: The Vul’Keth Invasion (required and sold separately), is a very challenging way to play Rise of Tribes.
