In Small World, players vie for conquest and control of a world that is simply too small to accommodate them all.

Designed by Philippe Keyaerts as a fantasy follow-up to his award-winning Vinci, Small World is inhabited by a zany cast of characters such as dwarves, wizards, amazons, giants, orcs, and even humans, who use their troops to occupy territory and conquer adjacent lands in order to push the other races off the face of the earth.

Picking the right combination from the 14 different fantasy races and 20 unique special powers, players rush to expand their empires - often at the expense of weaker neighbors. Yet they must also know when to push their own over-extended civilization into decline and ride a new one to victory!

On each turn, you either use the multiple tiles of your chosen race (type of creatures) to occupy adjacent (normally) territories - possibly defeating weaker enemy races along the way, or you give up on your race letting it go "into decline". A race in decline is designated by flipping the tiles over to their black-and-white side.

At the end of your turn, you score one point (coin) for each territory your races occupy. You may have one active race and one race in decline on the board at the same time. Your occupation total can vary depend on the special abilities of your race and the territories they occupy. After the final round, the player with the most coins wins.

Small World - great replay value

played this game twice now, once with 2 people and once with 4. All of us loved it and are keen to play it again and again. Love how the characters change with new powers each time you play. Easy to learn but has levels of complexity to make it interesting.

Small World

I bought three games for my grandchildren and Small World was a bit hit. Their favourite of all time.

Great area control!

One of the very first games I bought. I love the artwork and unique ability to switch characters and powers. Ive bought several expansions. Still enjoy and will keep in my collection.

Just played - Great game!

Just played this at a board game pub with 2 others. What a fun a game! There's strategy, meaningful choices, a neat bidding mechanism, and really nice artwork. Build your empire as large as you can. When you've taken it as far as possible, let it decline while you start a new empire while living off thr dividends of your previous one. What's not to like?

Lots of variety

Fun almost every time I play it. It isn't balanced and it doesn't need to be because hopefully the table will help beat up on the scariest players. Every game feels wildly different and having more races/powers from expansions only increases the variety. I'll always love this game
