Lookout Nusfjord Big Box

Nusfjord is a quaint fishing village on the Lofoten Islands, a chain of islands in northern Norway. Just 50 years ago, it was bustling with activity when the cod came to spawn. Today, the village has fewer than 100 residents and presents itself as a museum village. If you consider that you pay an entrance fee just to see the houses, you can imagine how picturesque it is here. Cruise ships sail along the coasts of the elongated, mostly deserted island world. During the time this game is set, things were different. Sailing ships dominated the fjord. The rocks around Nusfjord were still forested. The timber has gone, but the beauty of the landscape remains. We hope to capture it with this game.

The Nusfjord Big Box takes you to a charming fishing village on the Lofoten Islands in northern Norway – now a museum village. During the time this game is set, things were different. Sailing ships dominated the fjord. The rocks around Nusfjord were still forested. The timber has gone, but the beauty of the landscape remains.

This reissue of one of Uwe Rosenberg's most popular games comes in a fully packed Nusfjord Big Box. In addition to the base game, four expansion decks provide even more fun: the Schollen Deck (2018) and the Lachs Deck (2020) are joined by two completely new developments, the Forellen Deck and the Besøkende Deck (the latter complete with visitor meeples).

With the visitors in the Besøkende Deck, a new game mechanic is introduced. Furthermore, the mechanics remain unchanged: you clear land, use timber to build structures, and expand your fishing fleet to earn plenty of victory points in the end. The knowledge of the elders will also benefit you.
