About this board game

AEOLOS is a 60-minute board game for 2–4 players, released in 2022, in which sailors compete for acclaim on Mount Olympus and a place as a beneficiary in the alliance of the gods.

The ruler of the winds has invited you to a contest across the Islands of the Winds. To rise in the eyes of the gods, you must build settlements in seven harbors, construct ships, collect sacred crystals, and make use of the favor of the gods.

Sailing is never entirely predictable. The capricious winds of the mighty Aeolos shape your journeys, so your bag of wind should always be well filled. Like the legendary Odysseus, you will need to use this supply wisely as you move through the island kingdom.

  • Build settlements across seven harbors.
  • Construct ships for your voyages.
  • Collect sacred crystals.
  • Use the favor of the gods.
  • Manage your bag of wind while sailing.

Every decision takes place under pressure, with time constantly working against the sailors. Keep an eye on the other participants as you pursue your own acclaim and attempt to make the most of the changing winds.

With its mythic setting and focus on sailing, settlements, ships, sacred crystals, and divine favor, AEOLOS invites players to compete for recognition on Mount Olympus. Fill your bag of wind, navigate the islands, and strive to become the sailor most worthy of the gods’ alliance.
