Nusfjord Designed by: Uwe RosenbergPublished by: Lookout Games & Mayfair Games (2017)Players: 1 – 5Ages: 12 & upPlaying time: 20 – 100 min In Nusfjord, as the owner of a major fishing company, your goal is to develop the harbor and the surrounding landscape. Each turn, players use their three workers to place on a central board to trigger certain actions, which allows you to enlarge your fleet, clear the forest, erect new buildings, and satisfy the local elders. Money is scarce, and one of the quicker and easier ways to get money is to place shares of your own company on the market. The village elders might want their own share of your catch as well, so if you don’t take care, your catch could end up entirely in the hands of others and your camp will be empty. The game ends after 7 rounds, and the player with the most points dominates the fjords of the Lofoten archipelago!
