Elfenroads – SDJ 1998

Description

Elfenroads

2–6 players | Ages 13+ | 45–90 minutes

An expanded compilation that brings together Elfenland, the Elfengold expansion, and the new Elfensea map into one richer travel‑race experience. Young elves must prove themselves by touring as many famous towns as possible, using limited shared transport types (dragons, unicorns, giant pigs, elfcycles, troll wagons, magic clouds, ferries, rafts and – on Elfensea – whales). Transport is region‑restricted and scarce, so planning routes, bidding for resources and timing moves are key — the player who visits the most towns (and scores the most points) wins.

What’s new and included:

• Elfenland base game: classic route‑building race across a varied map using region‑specific transports.
• Elfengold expansion: gold coin bidding for travel counters and other items, Gold Value tokens on towns, two magic spells, a Sea Monster obstacle and optional longer play with extra round cards.
• Elfensea map: alternate board with a fresh geography and modified transport types (including whales), offering new route choices and replayability.

Why play:

• Elegant route planning with light bidding and resource management
• Three modular maps/sets for varied challenges and high replay value
• Great for families and gamers who enjoy spatial puzzles and tactical planning
