Game moment
Borealis - Expeditionen in die Arktis
🇩🇪 Original in German
Brand new because it arrived yesterday. German version, supported at the Spieleschmiede. A great little game with awesome components, gorgeous cards, and a nature theme. By cleverly playing the animal cards at the observation spots, we try to complete the varied mission and objective cards and end up with the most points.
Here in the solo setup for my first test play.

I got to try borealis at the B-Rex days and really liked it!

Looks interesting, completely went over my head...

DAs was the game I had "zero interest" in and only played because of Steffen. Then I liked every round more and even enjoyed the necessary forward planning, which I usually hate. Real tip from me, definitely give it a try.

Just played it twice now—solo was great for planning ahead, ended up with an almost optimal setup, and easily cleared the 70 VP requirement (that includes the image). But last night with four players, it turned into a real race to hit the goals and trigger the endgame. Didn’t go as well for me since the others planned and drew well, and I fell behind after grabbing the first milestone. Had to prioritize hard, and it was still a tight game. Even though I felt way behind on points, I still managed to finish just 10 points off the winner (48-46-43-48). Love it so far!
