Six Sojourns: Deluxe Edition

About this board game

Six Sojourns: Deluxe Edition is a 2025 area-control game for 2–4 players that plays in about 60 minutes. Reimagining Ryan Laukat’s Eight-Minute Empire, it challenges players to grow their families and broaden their influence through card-driven actions, tactical movement, and difficult choices.

On each turn, choose one card from the five displayed. Cards provide actions that let you build houses, gain ships, move people, and add new family members. They also offer special abilities and icon sets representing expertise in cooking, carpentry, sewing, shoe-making, art, blacksmithing, and jewelry.

Only nine cards are selected during each game, creating meaningful decisions as you balance trades, abilities, and control of the map. People can move in groups for more dynamic play, while ships open routes across the seas. Players may even pay one another to use ships for water travel.

• Houses replace cities, are worth two control, and allow only one house in each space.
• Sea spaces contribute both majority and goods.
• Sojourns add new cards and rules, letting you customize the experience or play through them in order.

The Deluxe Edition gathers all boards and expansions in one box, including the Volcano Expansion, Economy Expansion, Foil Title, Metal Coins, and Storage Tuck Boxes. With its larger board, expanded card selection, and high player interaction, Six Sojourns offers a compact but strategically rich contest for influence.
