Isle of Skye: Journeyman

About this expansion

Isle of Skye: Journeyman is a 2017 expansion for Isle of Skye for 2–5 players, with a playing time of 75 minutes. It introduces new personal player boards and a traveling journeyman who brings fresh challenges to kingdom development.

Becoming a king may be difficult, but ruling effectively demands strength, prosperity, and popularity. The new personal player boards track your progress in each of these areas, creating additional requirements to meet as your kingdom develops.

• Personal progress boards for strength, prosperity, and popularity
• Tile requirements that affect selling and placement
• A new journeyman pawn who travels through the kingdom
• Four new scoring tiles built around the expansion’s challenges

Placing the right tiles is no longer enough to claim the next level of development or its potential rewards. The journeyman must travel to the relevant locations and activate the tiles, making movement through the kingdom an important part of your progress.

These additions change how tiles influence your decisions. Their requirements affect both the way tiles are sold and where they can be placed, while activation gives the journeyman a central role in unlocking development.

As the first big expansion to Isle of Skye, Journeyman adds a new layer of progression without changing the game’s focus on building a kingdom. It is a fitting challenge for players who want to guide their realm toward greater strength, prosperity, popularity, and glory.
