Description

Tribes is a unique blend of role-playing and board game elements, set in the prehistoric era. Players take on the roles of cave men and women, tasked with hunting, gathering, and making tribal laws to ensure the survival of their families. The ultimate goal is simple: have the most kids and keep them alive until adulthood. This cooperative game requires players to balance individual interests with the need to work together, making decisions on when to cooperate and when to prioritize their own families. As players navigate the challenges of prehistoric life, they can institute their own laws and social patterns, experimenting with different societal structures and seeing how they impact their ability to survive and thrive. With support for 4 to 8 players, Tribes offers a fun and dynamic experience that's perfect for large groups, and its easy-to-learn rules make it accessible to new players.
