About five thousand years ago, a resilient group of farmers and hunters created a thriving community on the Orkney Islands of Northern Scotland. Instead of throwing away their empty shells, broken tools, bones, and other waste, they used them to form large mounds of earth over hundreds of years. Later generations dug into these mounds to create a series of rooms and tunnels to protect themselves from the fierce winds and cold winter months.
The goal of Skara Brae is to gather various resources in order to provide food, clothing, and shelter for the growing number of settlers. Players take turns choosing cards and using their workers to furnish, cook, craft, clean, and trade. At the end of each round, players must take care of their settlers and will create more mounds that need to be cleared. After four rounds, the player with the most points wins.
