Fjords

Players alternately place hexagonal tiles to assemble a coastal map and then place huts to establish villages. Placement determines access to terrain and adjacent fields, combining luck in tile draw with tactical positioning. After the map is built, players take turns claiming contiguous fields by enclosing areas with their huts and tiles, resolving control in a Go-like, territory-capture mechanic. The two-player game focuses on spatial planning, area control, and timing of placements to secure the larger portion of the region.

    A tile laying game similar to carcassonne. The first half and the second half of the game are like two seperate games.
