Description

Sauria is a thrilling adventure game where 1 to 5 players take on unique roles, each with their own secret goals, and compete to accumulate the most Victory Points. Designed by Maximillian Dennis and released in 2022, this semi-cooperative game drops players onto a treacherous island filled with dinosaurs, where they must navigate through a hexagon grid, managing their action points and rolling dice to overcome challenges. As they explore the island, players will encounter events and obstacles that will test their skills and push their luck to the limit. With a playtime of 45 to 150 minutes, Sauria offers a deeply immersive experience, where players must balance their individual objectives with the need to survive and eventually escape the island. The game's complexity is normal, making it accessible to board game enthusiasts, and its mechanics, such as map deformation and variable player powers, ensure a high level of replayability. As the game unfolds, the island will change, and the volcano will eventually erupt, spewing lava and destroying parts of the island, adding an extra layer of urgency to the players' quest for survival. Will you be able to outsmart the dinosaurs, complete your goals, and make it out alive, or will you become the island's latest victim? Gather your friends and get ready for a thrilling adventure in Sauria.
