About the game
In Chaski, you step into the shoes of an Inca messenger racing against time and other Chaskis to deliver the promises of the new ruler. The journey through the Tahuantinsuyo, the famed Inca road network, is the stage for this epic race. Each game promises a new adventure, as the board is assembled differently each time, making the route unpredictable. You'll need to use cards and perhaps some special combinations to advance, but beware: your rivals aren't just racing, they might try to eliminate you from the competition! Victory goes to the first player to cross an opponent's starting point or, in a more dramatic turn, to the last Chaski standing if all others are eliminated. It's a fast-paced and action-packed game, perfect for those who enjoy a tight contest where hand management and a bit of luck with dice rolls can make all the difference. Get ready for a thrilling race through Inca history!
