The game's elegant mechanics combine card drafting and area control to produce a system rich in strategic options and interpersonal interactions.
At the same time, brilliantly crafted tiles give every game a unique, gradually unfolding geography. The gorgeous original art brings Ireland's ancient epics and audacious heroes to life.


There are three different types of cards in Inis:
Action Cards - These are drafted each round and provide the base actions to deploy troops, move troops, attack, and play new regions.
Advantage Cards - These are acquired as a result of controlling certain regions. Each region has its own Advantage Card you receive as a result of having the most troops in it.
Epic Tales Cards - These unique and powerful cards evoke the Celtic gods and heroes to inspire the clans to accomplish legendary feats.
