Board Game Looot

Claim parts of the fjord to achieve the greatest glory among the Vikings!

This is a simple yet strategic abstract game featuring worker placement and personal board-building mechanics.

Gameplay

On their turn, a player performs:

• placing a Viking on the game board

And optional actions:

• claiming a building
• claiming a longship, which grants bonus points for a specific resource or building if surrounded by the required resources at the end of the game
• using one of three special action shields
• earning a trophy based on their army`s strength

Players take turns one by one until everyone passes.

Placing a Viking

Each Viking must be placed on an empty hex on the game board adjacent to any other Viking or boat. Upon placement, the player collects the resources from the active hex and places them on their personal board.

Claiming a Building

Depending on the type of structure (house, watchtower, or castle) the Viking ends up next to, the player receives the corresponding tile for their fjord. A single Viking is sufficient to claim a house. By creating a line of Vikings between two watchtowers, the player acquires both towers. To "conquer" castle, a group of 4 Vikings is required.

End of the game

Once every player has played all 13 of their Vikings onto the board, scoring begins for:

• buildings and resources
• completed construction sites and ports
• trophies

as well as a penalty:

• for unlaunched longships
