The ancient sultanate of Nakala is inhabited by five tribes, each with its own cultural features and traditions. When the ruler of this legendary state passed away, you realized that it was time to take action and seize power for yourself. However, rivals are not asleep and also want to ascend to the throne of Nakala. You must outpace them. Intrigues, flattery, bribery, trade... Everything is allowed. Nakala will be yours!
"Five Tribes" is a board strategy game set in an Eastern fantasy world, where Arab culture and fairy tale motifs are intertwined. Earn the respect of the tribes, trade, build, send assassins, as the end justifies the means. The game is based on the mechanics of the traditional Eastern game "Mancala", seamlessly integrated into the political competition for the title of sultan. Use all opportunities to become richer and more influential, but don’t forget to hinder your opponents from doing it better than you!
