«Wolves» is a strategic game where you will lead a pack of wolves: hunting prey, calling lone wolves to the pack, building dens, and fighting other packs for control over territories. Who knows, perhaps thanks to your unparalleled hunting instincts and cunning, your pack will dominate others by the full moon.
Who is this game suitable for?
- Fans of strategy games with territory control.
- Everyone: children, families, youth.
- Wolf enthusiasts.
How to play? Before the game starts, all players choose a pack: taking a pack board, wolf figures, and terrain tiles (2 identical ones, based on habitat, and 4 different ones). Then, players take turns, starting with the first player in a clockwise direction.
On their turn, players can perform 2 out of 6 possible actions:
- Movement. Move your pack's wolves by flipping the terrain tile corresponding to the required cell on the board.
- Den establishment. Place a den on a controlled cell by flipping 2 terrain tiles.
- Upgrading to a lair. Strengthen territory control through a large lair.
- Call. Increase your pack by calling lone wolves to you.
- Conquest. Replace others' wolves and dens with yours.
- Hunting. Gather food for the pack by surrounding the prey.
In the heat of battle, don’t forget to keep an eye on the phases of the moon! As soon as players reach full moon on the lunar calendar, the game immediately ends and victory points are counted. The player with the most victory points is declared the winner, and their pack is the dominant one across the territory on both sides of the Grand Canyon!
