Snowcrest

About this board game

Snowcrest is a 2024 board game for 1–4 players, with a play time of 60 minutes, about guiding a village and monastery toward enlightenment in a remote, snowy mountain land.

Centuries-old knowledge lies hidden in ancient scrolls, guarded by magical beasts. As the leader of your settlement, you must help a unique faction of priests, farmers, and laborers rediscover what has been lost and work toward restoring peace and prosperity across the snowfields.

Develop your village and monastery through a range of meaningful activities. Tend the barley fields, harvest juniper from the forest, build structures, and nurture the cultural development of your community. Alongside these practical tasks, present offerings and become lost in meditation as you seek to reveal the secrets of a bygone age.

• Lead a faction of priests, farmers, and laborers.
• Build structures and develop your village.
• Tend barley fields and harvest juniper from the forest.
• Present offerings and pursue meditation.
• Uncover ancient knowledge and overcome monstrous guardians.

The path to enlightenment is not without danger. The powerful knowledge you seek is protected by monstrous guardians, making its discovery a central challenge as your community reaches deeper into the snowy wilderness.

In Snowcrest, every effort contributes to the fate of your village and monastery. At the end of the game, players tally their points to determine who has led their community most successfully toward peace, prosperity, and enlightenment.
