Toll-featured strategy game with a special twist: Instead of "worker placement", now "Worker Displacement";)

"Five Tribes" is finally not a worker placement game, but rather a worker displacement Game. The Meeple (workers) are therefore not being used on the board to trigger actions, but removed from the board. A more than interesting gimmick! The author Bruno Cathala has certainly inspired by "Mancala" in developing the original mechanism, an ancient African board game. A great idea, as we find, for "Five Tribes" thus plays actually new and unused. Be sure to audition!

THERE IS A VIDEO REVIEW?
We made too Five Tribes on our YouTube channel "Hunter & Cron" a detailed video review.

Our personal opinion:

HUNTER 8/10
+ A game for (Maybe) Players
+ Complex, multilayered mechanisms
+ Brilliant pulling mechanism, extremely high variance
- Can in strenuous brooding degenerate
- From time to time the board has a long time no great moves

CRON 8/10
+ Opulently equipped games with great material
+ Instead of worker placement now Worker Displacement
+ Diverse strategies lead to victory
+ The game is like a puzzle that is constantly changing
+ Very high replayability appeal
- The variety of options can start almost a little slain a
- Brooder need some of them very long to plan their train

WHAT IT SONT YET TO KNOW THERE:
There is an interesting developer diary to FIVE TRIBES Bruno Cathala on the side of Days of Wonder, however currently only in English. But who is interested in the history and development of FIVE TRIBES should definitely googling times thereafter and take a look.

AS THE SELF PUBLISHING DESCRIBES THE GAME:
On their way through the country from 1001 Nights your caravan reached the fabled Sultanate of Naqala. The old Sultan has recently died and the throne of Naqala is orphaned! The oracle announced by strangers who would come there to draw the five clans to summon jinn and old to wrestle power and influence in the Sultanate, in that one of them gains the upper hand. In FIVE TRIBES each player embodies a stranger who ventures into the famous city state Naqala to be proclaimed Grand Sultan. Do this by moving the Meeples the different clans from place to place in order to take possession of and use skills. At the end the player with the most points.
