About this board game

Sonora is a flick-and-write game for 1–4 players, with a playing time of approximately 45 minutes. Set in the striking Sonoran Desert, it combines dexterity and cunning as players flick wooden discs across a game board representing the region’s vibrant landscapes.

Each area of the board features a different unique game, giving players a choice of where to aim and score. Skillful flicks are essential: landing a disc in the region you want can help you record points on your dry-erase sheet and pursue the scoring opportunities available there.

There is more to watch than your own aim. Other players are eager to bump discs and score points for themselves, turning every flick into a moment of shared opportunity and potential disruption. Careful placement and a sharp eye can make the difference as discs move across the board.

  • Flick wooden discs across a Sonoran Desert game board.
  • Choose among areas featuring different unique games.
  • Record points on a dry-erase sheet.
  • Look out for opponents who can bump discs to benefit themselves.

The setting brings the landscape vividly into focus, from technicolor sunsets and deep canyons to trickling tributaries and ancient pueblo cliff dwellings. Sonora invites players to immerse themselves in a desert adventure where dexterity meets thoughtful scoring.

Released in 2020, Sonora offers a distinctive tabletop experience built around flicking, interaction, and varied landscape-based play. Whether you are trying to place a disc in your preferred region or responding to another player’s move, every turn connects physical skill with the secrets of the desert.
