Rise of Tribes

Players lead a prehistoric tribe across a modular hex board of lakes, mountains and forests, placing and moving tribe members while managing population limits on each hex. Each turn the active player rolls two dice, then picks two actions from GROW, MOVE, GATHER and LEAD; action strength depends on the die roll combined with dice previously placed on the action board. Actions resolve one at a time, then any Conflicts triggered by overcrowding are resolved, and players may build villages or complete goal cards. Score by building villages and completing development/achievement cards; the first tribe to reach 15 points wins. A separate invasion expansion enables a solo mode.
