Description
In Odin's Ravens, two players take on the role of Hugin and Munin, Odin's clever corvids, racing to be the first to return to their master. This 30-minute game is easy to learn, making it accessible to new players. The game features a unique map addition mechanic, where players create a track of domino-style landscape cards, using their hand management skills to advance their raven. As the ravens soar over Midgard, players use their decks to match the land type in front of their bird, trying to outmaneuver their opponent. Special Odin cards allow for clever tricks, such as rearranging the track or slowing down the other player's raven. The first player to accumulate 12 points, earned by being the first to reach the end of the flight path or playing cards to the Magic Way, wins the game and gains Odin's favor.
