Description
For several decades during the Viking age, parts of England were occupied by the Norsemen. Under their influence, one of the larger cities turned into a flourishing center of trade and craftsmanship. The Vikings called the city and its surrounding kingdom "Jórvik", which is today known as the city of York. In the game JÓRVÍK, players assume the roles of Viking jarls. They gather prestige points by trading goods, holding big feasts, funding pillages, commissioning craftsmen and hiring soldiers to defend the city against recurring invasions. The player with the most prestige points wins. The game is a re-design of Die Speicherstadt (2010). In this game, players acquire cards from a card display through a simple yet brilliant worker placement and bidding mechanism to build up their trading empires. JÓRVÍK includes two versions: A base game that is equivalent to Die Speicherstadt, and an advanced game that equates to Die Spiecherstadt including its expansion Kaispeicher.

Que jogo tão contagiante! 2 formas de leilão, bem parasitosas, ideais para perder amizades, numa obra em que a gestão do dinheiro é determinante e nada fácil. A arte é que podia e devia ser melhor, mas mesmo assim não está mal... Vou querer jogar este jogo a toda a hora, apaixonei-me!
Well designed, and works wonderfully with two. Haven't tried it with a larger table, but anticipate the experience will be surprisingly similar, as attention was given to the scale factor in this design. Deceptively simple ruleset -- very simplistic mechanisms drive a complex set of decisions. Only negative is the length, but I find this a minor quibble. Our sessions have run a touch longer than I'd have preferred given the simplicity of the game, but I'm really reaching to find a criticism to include in my otherwise glowing praise.
As excellent as the reimplemented original game, The Speicherstadt. Played the base game (I have never played the Kaispeicher expansion). In my opinion, both the theme and art were far more interesting in the original. But of course this is just a personal question. The game is just superb, with one of the best auction mechanisms I have met.
This game is an underrated gem. Reinvents Die Speicherstadt (including the difficult to find expansion Kaispeicher) in a Viking setting. One of my very favorite auction/bidding games and with great mid-weight depth, tight mechanisms, and tough decision making. It shines at 5 players and is usually fairly inexpensive.
CAUTION! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. It contains small parts which could be swallowed or inhaled.
