Floe

Floe takes you on an exciting journey through the icy realm of the Iceberg Sea. Here, you will choose your path and shape your story as a true hero. What will you decide to do? You can... Discover enigmatic iceberg islands and uncover mysteries hidden in the depths of the ice? Defy sea storms in search of sunken relics and unforgettable adventures? Face mythical creatures as you search for the secret heart of the frozen kingdom? Or maybe just relax with a bowl of seaweed noodle soup - the choice is in your hands! In Floe, each player has several ways to become a hero. **Gameplay Each turn, you will have the opportunity to perform actions by taking pieces from a shared bag or returning components already taken to it. These actions will allow you to activate your hero, sail your boat, expand the map and draw new cards. The game features an innovative system for moving between regions, where heroes and boats glide fluidly through the realm, using only the natural shapes of the ice and sea to direct their steps - you never have to count squares. Improve your character, upgrade your special weapon, build new constructions and conquer powerful magical items. The first player to collect all their Floe sigils by completing the heroic challenges will be crowned the winner.

GAME mechanics

  • Fitting PartsIn Floe, players must strategically place different ice pieces on a modular board. Each piece has a unique shape, and the aim is to create passages or block opponents effectively. The pieces are drawn randomly from an available set, requiring advance planning on how and where each piece will be placed to maximize its effectiveness.
  • Players with Different SkillsEach player takes control of a specific character, endowed with unique abilities that can influence the course of the game. For example, one character may have the ability to move further or manipulate pieces in ways that others cannot. The strategic selection of the character at the start of the game is crucial, as personalized skills must be integrated into the player's overall strategy to overcome challenges and opponents.
  • Area MovementThis mechanic allows players to move their pieces or characters between different areas on the board, which can be constantly changing due to the placement of new pieces or players' abilities. Tactical knowledge of when and where to move can be the difference between winning and losing, as players need to adapt dynamically to the evolution of the terrain and their opponents' moves.
