Description

Lead the tribes in the fight for control over Naqala!

Your caravan crosses the land of One Thousand and One Nights, heading for the famous sultanate of Naqala. The old ruler has just died, and his empire is up for grabs! The viziers predicted the arrival of a stranger who will lead the five tribes and gain control over the legendary city-state. Will you fulfill this prophecy? Summon the djinns, master the tribes, and at the right moment, the sultanate of Naqala will be yours!

In Five Tribes, players place their "meeples" in villages, markets, oases, and sacred places - all of which make up the sultanate of Naqala. The winner is decided by perfect timing - specifically how, when, and where the assassins, elders, builders, merchants, and viziers of the five tribes appear.

The game is in English.

A visually stunning tactical game where you'll plan, calculate, and then recalculate everything after your opponent's turn, as they might have just snatched your move or set you up for a better one. The rules are quite simple and available in Czech for those who prefer it over English. You can easily play and enjoy it with two players, where each takes two turns per round. Every game is unique because you always build a different board and place tribes differently, giving it excellent replayability.

Graficky krásně zpracovaná taktická hra,ve které budete plánovat, počítat a pak to všechno po tahu vašeho protihráče můžete překalkulovat protože vám mohl klidně vyfouknout váš tah nebo vám nahrát na lepší. Pravidla jsou vcelku jednoduchá a dají se pořídit i v češtině pro ty kterým angličtina nevyhovuje. Bez problému lze hrát a užít si i ve dvou hráčích, kdy každý táhne 2x v jednom kole. Každá hra je unikátní protože vždy postavíte jinou hrací plochu a jinak umístíte kmeny, takže má výbornou znovuhratelnost.

Five Tribes is an excellent tactical game that hardcore gamers will love, but it's also accessible enough for those who haven't played many games yet (the rules fit on just two sheets of paper). The game is beautifully crafted; the individual meeples have thematic turbans on their heads, and the camel meeples are just adorable. The artwork on the Djinn cards is also stunning.

Although the game is primarily designed for 4 players, it's also excellent with 2. I appreciate the strategic addition of being able to play twice in a row, which lets you set up your moves. I would deduct one star because the game isn't suitable for people who suffer from analysis paralysis—you can't plan your turn in advance, as you always have to react to the current state of the board. Personally, I really like this mechanic, so for me, Five Tribes is 5/5 (and it very quickly became one of my top 10 favorite games).

Five Tribes je výborná taktická hra, kterou si užijí hardcore hráči, ale i ti, kteří zatím příliš her nahráno nemají (pravidla jsou jen na 2 listech papíru). Hra je krásně zpracovaná, jednotliví meeplové mají na hlavě tématicky turbany a velbloudí meeplové jsou prostě k sežrání. Kresby na kartách džinů jsou také krásné.

Ačkoliv je hra určena primárně pro 4 hráče, ve 2 je také výborná a oceňuji strategické přidání prvku, kdy můžete hrát 2x po sobě a cestu si tak připravit. Jednu hvězdičku bych hře ubrala za to, že není vhodná pro hraní s lidmi trpícími analýzou-paralýzou - nejde si totiž tah naplánovat dopředu, ale musíte vždy reagovat na aktuální stav herního plánu. Mně osobně se tahle mechanika ale velmi líbí a tak je pro mě Five Tribes 5/5 (a velice rychle se stala jednou z mých top 10 nejoblíbenějších her)

If you love crunching numbers, this game is for you. While it's visually and mechanically interesting, it's prone to downtime. There's no room for long-term strategy here; instead, you have to recalculate every new possibility after each player's turn to find the best move.

Pokud rádi počítáte, tak je tohle hra pro vás. Ač vizuálně i mechanicky docela zajímavá, tak herně velice náchilná k prostojům, protože tu nefunguje nic jako dlouhodobá strategie, ale potřeba po tahu každého hráče v podstatě přepočítat všechny nově se objevivší varianty a vybrat z nich tu nejlepší...
