Description
In Himalaya, you lead a tribe of yak herders through the snowy mountains, collecting goods and increasing your influence. As the chief of a Himalayan tribe, you'll guide your caravan from village to village, gathering salt, barley, tea, jade, and gold to develop your tribe. You'll need to plan ahead, programming your caravan's moves to outmaneuver your opponents and deliver goods to the right places. The game is a thrilling mix of strategy and luck, with a unique scoring system that eliminates players based on their religious and political influence. In the end, the player with the greatest economic influence wins. With its engaging gameplay and medieval Himalayan setting, Himalaya is a fun and challenging game for 3 to 4 players to enjoy together. The game's normal complexity makes it easy for experienced board game players to learn and start playing right away.
