Description

Get ready to embark on a thrilling adventure with I C E: Relics, the latest expansion to the I C E series, designed by Bragou, Sams and published in 2025. This game is perfect for 1 to 5 players who are familiar with board games, as the rules are of normal complexity, making it easy to learn and dive into. In I C E: Relics, you'll be exploring a modular board, using action points and worker placement to assemble powerful relics. These relics are made up of smaller, diamond-shaped pieces that fit together to form a complete image, unlocking new ways to score and powerful abilities. As you play, you'll need to strategically use your workers to discover and collect relic pieces, and then negotiate with other players to swap pieces and complete your relics. But be careful, once you've got two out of three pieces of a relic, it's locked in and can't be traded away. With the introduction of relics, new abilities and playstyles emerge, particularly for the Preachers guild and the Telepaths, who can take over other players' leaders and use them to their advantage. With playtime ranging from 75 to 120 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the science fiction world of I C E: Relics, exploring and competing with your friends to see who can unlock the most powerful relics and emerge victorious.
