Skara Brae
Hace cerca de 5000 años, un grupo de vigorosos cazadores y granjeros construyó una próspera comunidad en las Islas Orkney al norte de Escocia.
En lugar de deshacerse de sus conchas vacías, herramientas rotas, huesos y demás desechos, los apilaron a lo largo de cientos de años hasta formar cerros. Generaciones posteriores excavaron en estas pilas para crear una serie de estancias y túneles para protegerse de los fuertes vientos y de los fríos meses del invierno.
El objetivo de Skara Brae es reunir diversos recursos para alimentar, vestir y dar cobijo al creciente número de colonos. Los jugadores se turnan para elegir cartas y usar a sus trabajadores para amueblar, cocinar, fabricar, limpiar y comerciar. Al final de cada ronda, los jugadores deben proveer para sus colonos y probablemente crearán más basural que deberá limpiarse. Después de cuatro rondas, el jugador con más puntos gana.

Skara Brae
In this tactical resource management game for 1-4 players, you lead a Stone Age community on the Orkney Islands. The goal is to gather resources to support your settlers and manage waste (Midden) to accumulate the most Victory Points (VP).
Gameplay
The game lasts exactly 4 rounds. Each round consists of 3 turns per player.
A turn consists of the following steps:
- Select Card: Choose 1 available Village Card from the display and resolve it immediately.
- Assign Workers: Place your Large Worker (and up to 3 Small Workers) on your Action Tiles. Actions are resolved from top to bottom.
- Retrieve Workers: Collect all workers back for your next turn.
Resources & Waste Management
Resources are stored in your storage area. Each slot holds exactly 1 resource.
- The Slider: If you gain more resources than slots available, the slider moves to the right. This increases waste production and results in negative VP at the end.
- Midden (Waste): Occupies storage slots and can only be removed via the "Clean" action.
Round End & Scoring
After 3 turns, the round ends:
- Feeding: Each settler without a roof must be fed 1 Food, or they are discarded.
- Waste Production: Gain Midden according to the slider's position (minus Utensil bonuses).
End of Game: After 4 rounds, points are awarded for played cards (Settlers, Roofs, Stone Balls), track progress, and upgraded Action Tiles. Midden and slider position result in negative points.
