Sagnir - Tile Laying Game

Sagnir is a part of The Nordic Heritage collection. It is a set of 3 games that take place in Iceland and Scandinavia during medieval times. Although the games themselves are fictional, each game's theme and background inspiration is based on actual stories, rumors, artifacts, and the heritage from the era. Have you heard about Elves, Grýla, Ódin´s ravens Huginn and Muninn, or the Volcanic giant? While playing Sagnir, you can meet them personally and learn more about their story in an informative booklet included in the box.

GAME OVERVIEW

Sagnir (formerly known as Mythical Island) is a tile-laying game for 2 – 4 players, age 14 and up. Throughout the game, players will draw Mythical Being cards that show a certain arrangement of the five different Landscape tiles.

The players aim to arrange the Landscape tiles on the table to create the pattern on the Mythical Beings card. Then players need to move their pawn onto a tile of this pattern to activate the Mythical Being card, scoring points that are counted at the end of the game.

The game ends when any player has activated a certain number of Mythical Beings, according to several players. The player with the highest score wins.

All Mythical Beings in the game are based on Icelandic & Nordic folklore. Descriptions and stories of each Being can be found in the separate Mythiopedia booklet.
