How to play Isle of Skye: From Chieftain to King

Players secretly price landscape tiles, buy from rivals, and add the tiles they gain to their own growing territory while chasing changing scoring goals. It feels like a steady mix of planning and reading the table, with bidding choices that can help opponents as well as yourself. It suits families and strategy players who want a 2 to 5 player game that lasts 30 to 50 minutes.
