The Isle of Skye: Promotional Pieces set is a special expansion that came with the 2016 release of the Brazilian version of the game. If you were a fan and pre‑ordered, you received a unique set of pieces that add an exclusive flair and boost the base game’s fun. The package includes previous promo tiles, such as the Brettspiel Adventskalender 2015 Promo Tiles and the Kennerspiel des Jahres Promo Tile 2016, plus an alternative first‑player marker that nods to the Kennerspiel des Jahres award, celebrating the game’s continued accolades. Each piece is crafted from high‑quality wood with colors that match the Scottish landscape theme. This kit doesn’t replace the main game but serves as a bonus content that can be used in regular play or as a gift for those who already master Skye. The set contains four terrain tiles and a player marker, all compact, making it great for conventions or to decorate the table at home. If you want to deepen the territory building, economic, and auction elements that make Isle of Skye’s heart beat faster, these promotional pieces are a fun and visually appealing addition. The expansion keeps the same medium complexity as the base game, with 30‑to‑50 minute playtime for 2‑to‑5 players. In short, the set is perfect for fans who love the game and want something extra that elevates the Scottish theme and the feel of conquering the island.
