Tongiaki

(GAME SUMMARY)

Drake says: "In Tongiaki, players are island people in the Pacific who seek to explore the surrounding archipelago on tongiaki’s (wooden boats). Players may land on islands provided there is a spare beach and they already have one or more tongiaki’s on the island. This allows players to fill islands and access new beaches to allow exploration via new paths. The game is over when the final tile is laid and scoring is then calculated.""

Description:

300 AD: The Polynesians embark on daring sailing trips and explore thousands of Pacific islands. Driven by overpopulation and a desire for adventure, they set forth into the unknown on simple catamarans called Tongiakis. Without any help from navigational instruments, they charted their course with the help of the sun, stars, wind and water temperature. Birds, reefs, cloud formations, fishes and distinctive waves were the signals telling them that land lay nearby. Each trip became a life-threatening journey, as landfall was often impossible to achieve or the way home became cut off by strong currents. Suspense was their constant companion. Will the next hour, the next day bring them to their goal... or will the ocean's currents force them to drift endlessly at sea?
