Description

In Bison: Thunder on the Prairie, you'll take on the role of a Native American Indian tribe, aiming to settle in areas rich with bison, fish, and turkeys. These resources are crucial for survival, providing food, clothes, and materials for rituals and adornment. As you explore the modular board, you'll catch and collect these animals, tracking your progress on your own overview board. With a playtime of 90 minutes, 2 to 4 players can enjoy the challenge of Bison, using action points and tile placement to navigate the territory and build their influence. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to those familiar with board games, and its unique mechanics ensure an engaging experience. By strategically managing your resources and expanding your territory, you'll be competing to have the most animals and win the game.
