The Isle of Skye boasts stunning landscapes with soft - sand beaches, gentle hills, and majestic mountains. In this tile - laying game, players are chieftains of famous clans. Your goal is to build your kingdom and score points. Only four out of sixteen scoring tiles are scored per game, making each play unique. Each game demands different tactics and strategies. Money management is key, as each turn you place two area tiles and set a selling price. Set it high, but someone has to buy. If not, you buy at your own set price. The player with the best - built kingdom, not the richest one, becomes the island's sovereign. We're excited to support game campaigns.

How to play: First, gather 2 to 5 players. Each of you takes on the role of a chieftain of a famous clan. In each turn, place two area tiles in front of you and set a selling price for them. Try to set a price that others will pay, but be careful because if no one buys, you have to buy them at the price you set. Throughout the game, focus on building your kingdom using the tiles to score points. Only four of the sixteen scoring tiles will be counted in each game, so plan your strategies accordingly. The game ends when it's time to decide the winner. The player with the best - built kingdom becomes the sovereign of the island. Note: Money management is very important in this game. Make sure to think carefully before setting the selling price of your tiles. Maintenance: Keep the game in a dry and cool place. If the tiles get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing the game to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, as this may damage the components.
