Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Epic stories … wonderful love confessions … memories of fallen warriors… glory of heroic women … or anything else that needs to be carved. We will carve it and make it withstand the task of time for the Jarl, who is willing to pay a coin. A vast field of Rune stones has been erected before us, the runes outlined with charcoal just awaiting our tools and skills to be put to work. We aim to become the most honourable and known Rune Masters after the current work season. May the most honourable stone carver win! Runir is a quick phased dice game for 2 – 4 players, ages 8 and up. Playing time is 10 minutes per player. In Runir, each player has his set of energy (represented with crystals) that will be used to carve runes or to use in assistance chambers to aid the rune carvers. For each rune you need to carve, you need to have the correct tool combination; your die roll. The die roll represents the tools you are given at the start of the current work session. You need to find a rune text to carve, that matches the tools you have. If you do not have the correct tools, you have a chance to get a different set of tools in the assistance chambers. If the requirements are fulfilled, players can also visit the Jarl´s Grand Hall to gain a praise from the Jarl and raise their honour. When any one player has used all of his energy, the game ends and honour is counted. The player with the most honour wins and becomes the Rune Master. —description from the publisher
