Isle of Skye by Asmodee Digital brings the beloved board game to life with stunning visuals and engaging gameplay that challenge players to thrive as Scottish clan chieftains.

Isle of Skye is an engaging and strategic board game where five clans compete for control over the Isle of Skye. The goal is to develop your clan's territory and make wise trading decisions, in order to become the ruling chieftain.

As you venture out from your castle, you have the opportunity to shape the Isle of Skye by adding picturesque landscapes such as green hills, pristine beaches, and majestic mountain ranges. In addition, you can raise livestock, produce whisky, build forts, and ships. Expanding your territory tile by tile, you must carefully decide whether to hold onto your tiles by paying a price or sell them to opponents at a price you set. Skillfully setting tile prices, making strategic purchases and sales, and constructing structures are all essential elements in your quest for dominion over the Isle of Skye!

Each game offers a unique experience, requiring players to develop different strategies and tactics. With its adaptable mechanics and straightforward rules, Isle of Skye is a fantastic game for players of all levels of expertise.
