Baltic Year

Description

Baltic Year is a strategic card collection game where players journey through eight ancient Baltic celebrations. Collect card sequences and combinations while traveling the moonlight path, aiming to gather Baltic symbol tokens while keeping your hand value low. Players form sets (same numbers, different signs) or sequences (consecutive numbers, same sign) to claim corresponding Baltic symbol tokens. The game features 52 cards with eight distinct Baltic signs representing sacred celebrations like Užgavėnės, Rasa, and Vėlinės, plus 4 "Magic" cards that can become any number or sign. Win by collecting four tokens of any signs, or three adjacent tokens in the Baltic Year Cycle sequence. Alternatively, achieve victory by having the fewest points when someone crosses the 30-point threshold. With elegant Baltic symbolism and accessible mechanics for 2-7 players aged 8+, Baltic Year combines strategy with cultural heritage, celebrating ancient wisdom through engaging gameplay. —description from the publisher
