About Whale Riders: The Card Game

While preparing for the winter, the whale riders were surprised by a sudden drop in temperature. The Ice Coast will freeze early and will make the journey for supplies even more dangerous than usual. The riders bond together and journey as a group one final time from port to port. Many supplies are needed for their clans, and the riders agree to band together and commit to sharing one big consignment in each port. Soon, however, it becomes apparent that the raiders’ preferences for the offered consignments differ greatly. In each port, the to-ing and fro-ing begins anew to close the most preferred deal… In Whale Riders: The Card Game, a reimplementation of Reiner Knizia's classic card game Trendy, you ride alongside others to buy goods along the Ice Coast, sometimes working together with others only to become competitors again when a better proposition comes along.
