About the game
What you do in a play session
If you enjoy a relaxing board game vibe that still gives your brain a little workout, Tipperary is your perfect match! Imagine being sent to the heart of Ireland to build the most amazing county in the region. The goal is simple yet tricky: you need to organize your lands using various shaped pieces (the famous polyominoes) to create the perfect landscape. But hold on, it's not just about tossing pieces anywhere! There's a mystical element called the 'agical stone circle' that dictates which pieces you can pick each round, adding a really cool strategic layer. Over twelve rounds, you'll strive to collect as many cute sheep, imposing castles, and of course, that top-notch Irish whiskey to secure your victory. The game is visually stunning and features adorable 'animeeples' that are absolutely charming. It's the perfect kind of game to gather friends or play with the family; it's quick enough to finish before dinner but deep enough for those who love planning every move. In the end, who will be the true Chief of Tipperary? You'll have to play to find out!
