Knarr: Skali is an expansion for the base game Knarr, a fast-paced card and management game where you play as a Viking chief leading your crew.
In this expansion, you now develop your own village around a skáli (a large Scandinavian farmhouse), adding a dimension of construction and strategic planning.
Games gain depth with new effects, buildings to activate, and raids that disrupt the balance between players.
The whole enriches the original experience while maintaining dynamic and accessible games.

How to play Knarr?
Game Setup
Place the central board in the middle of the table and prepare the two types of cards: Commercial Lands and Lands of Influence (each revealed in three copies).
Distribute one ship board, 3 silver bracelets, and 3 recruit tokens to each player, along with an initial hand of Viking cards.
Arrange the remaining Viking cards in a visible line to form the recruitment market.
Gameplay outline
In turn, each player performs one of two main actions:
- Recruit Vikings: Play a card to strengthen your crew and activate bonuses based on the colors aligned.
- Explore New Lands: Spend cards of your choice to take a Destination card, generating resources and points.
In addition, each turn, you can exchange silver bracelets to trigger additional effects on your board.
Win/Loss Condition
The game ends when a player reaches or exceeds a predetermined score threshold (often around 40 points). All players then complete the same number of turns, and the player with the highest score wins.
