Description

In The Border, you're racing to surround areas on your game board as quickly as possible. With simple rules that can be explained fast, 2 to 4 players can dive into this 30-minute game. Each player has their own erasable board featuring nine areas, surrounded by paths of colored hexagons. On your turn, you roll five dice up to three times, using the results to mark off spaces on your board. As you mark off hexagons, you'll score points for completing areas, with larger areas worth more points. But be careful, because your opponents can also make progress on their boards based on the dice you don't use. The game ends when one player completes their sixth area, and the player with the most points wins. With its unique blend of dice rolling and strategic planning, The Border is a fun and challenging game that's easy to learn and plays quickly.
