Hawaii*

In Hawaii, a tactical board game, players take on the role of active strategists rather than idle vacationers. The challenge lies in efficiently using limited resources over five rounds to build and enhance villages on the Hawaiian islands. Players, acting as chieftains, navigate the board to acquire new tiles, making strategic purchases with three different currencies. The game requires careful management of these resources as they deplete over time. Success in Hawaii hinges on the ability to provide for the people while adapting to a diminishing income, demanding a balance of various point-scoring strategies.
