Based on the universe of the video game Northgard, Northgard: Uncharted Lands is a game of conquest and exploration set in the Viking Age. Each player will control a Viking clan, seeking victory by reaping glory in various ways or controlling the most prized territories of this new continent. The game focuses on simplified rules and mechanisms, allowing for a fast and fluid pace of play. At each round, players alternate their actions to adapt their strategies to the movements of their opponents and the expansion of the board.
Glory (victory points) can be gained by exploring, fighting, controlling and developing territories, hunting monsters... The various corresponding actions are played through the cards the players hold in their hands. At the end of each round, they will have to choose a new card to improve their personal play, as their clans develop new tactics and technologies. The conquest of Northgard will also require good management of the food resource, which is used to attract unleashed creatures, improve your hand of cards, and update the specifics of your Clan. The few winter turns make this management more difficult, as the territories stop producing food and slow down the Clan's movements.
The pace of the game is determined by the players, as the game ends when they have collected a certain amount of Fame or when they control 3 closed territories housing certain types of buildings.
