Skute is now available for purchase worldwide (preorder for USA with estimated delivery in November).
Rally the Seafolk to sink some Viking skutes in blustery the North Sea! In the card game Skute, players start by bidding to gain various creatures to their hand and grotto. Next, they attempt to play out all these Sea Folk cards from their hand before their opponents can in order to sink the best skute. After four seasons, whoever has the most valuable collection of sunken skutes wins.
Combining bidding, drafting and card shedding, Skute is a card game that is easy to teach and easy to table, but provides continued enjoyment and laugh out loud moments. Each game of Skute is unique with different combination of event cards, which continually add new wrinkles each round which persist and crescendo in the final round.
Shem, Sam and Zach have filmed a 3-player gameplay video which is available to watch here. You can also find out more about the design process behind Skute by listening to the latest Lens and Veil episode here.
