Natives

Your tribe

You prepare your tribe for winter. Seven tribe cards = Occupations provide different actions; additional tribe members are added to the tribe cards for more of the same actions.

Occupations for each player and five cards forming the prairie, taken from the stack of prairie cards, are displayed. Prairie cards comprise additional tribe members, corn, salmon, bison and totems.

Players are active in turn and resolve Prairie Replenishment = put card from stack into the prairie; Scout = optional, put as many cards from stack into the prairie as you have Scout actions; activate Occupation to resolve the action(s).

Occupation Actions are: Scout - placing cards into the prairie; Elder - recruits new tribe members; Shaman - uses totems; Warrior - takes prisoners; Farmer - harvests corn; Fisherman - catches salmon; Hunter - hunts bisons.

When the card „Winter is coming is revealed, the current round ends; then you score your own tribe members, also in other players‘ displays, deduct penalties for opposing tribe members in your own display plus points from food, prisoners and totems in relation to the respective cards in your display.

The game also provides cards for three expansion: Die Rituale, with similar effects to totems; Die Jahreszeiten featuring cards for spring, summer and autumn as well as change-of-season cards, and Die Seele der Prärie with new features like Große Nahrung, Legendäre Helden as well as Konflikt & Eintracht.

Natives offers an attractive dilemma on decisions when to expand the number of actions with new tribe members next to the Occupations and when to collect victory points, in short, when to take which cards.
