Description

Clacks: A Discworld Board Game is all about speed and strategy, set in the whimsical world of Discworld. The game is based on the "Clacks" semaphore messaging system, which revolutionized long-distance communications on the Discworld. Players take on the role of Clacks operators, racing to send messages across the continent, from Ankh-Morpork to Genua. With its unique blend of action points, pattern building, and take that mechanics, this game is perfect for fans of abstract strategy and novel-based games. You can play against your friends to claim the title of Fastest Clacks Operator, or team up to win the race against the Post Office. With a playtime of just 30 to 45 minutes, Clacks is a great game for a quick evening session with friends or family. The game's normal complexity makes it easy to learn for experienced board game players, and its cooperative mode adds a fun twist to the classic competitive gameplay.
