Small Islands is a tile-placement game in which you are daring explorers discovering a magnificent archipelago. Its islands are brimming with natural resources but also temples from an ancient and mysterious civilization. Brave adventurers, bring back to your clan wealth & prestige!

A game is played in maximum 4 Rounds. At the beginning of each Round, each player secretly picks an Objective Card out of three cards. And in turn, players draw and place a Landscape Tile out of the 5 available (2 in hand, and 3 on the table). At a certain point, another option becomes available: placing a Ship Tile. When this tile is placed, in turn, all players place Houses on the islands and earn Prestige Points according to their Objective. Then players start a new Round. When the game ends, players receive additional points for their Ship Tiles.

In Advanced Mode, Objectives are split in 2 types of cards which allows you to create your own objectives amongst many combinations.

There is also a Solo Mode, innovative for its mechanics as well as for the very concept of a solo mode in a tile-placement game. We gave it an IA with a personality and different behaviors.

Small Islands offers you even more surprises, hidden at its heart.

Little gem!

I actually bought this before carcassonne. If you like tile games like I do then worth having both. A few different twists. Looking forward to trying the solo mode.

A full and great game with wonderful artwork

If you're a fan of Carcassonne or Akrotiri then just buy this game and don't read on (wasting good game playing time!). This is mostly a tile laying game with a little bit of push your luck thrown in. Create islands that will accomplish your mission cards and then set sail at the right time to score the most points. Each player only gets to do it once per game so too early or too late and you'll miss the moment. Beautiful artwork, high quality components, and a solo mode make this a very well rounded and fun game. SO GLAD this finally came to Canada and that BGB picked it up, thanks!!
