In the misty lands of Celtic legend, power is never taken lightlyand never held for long.

In Inis, players compete to become the High King or Queen by proving their leadership across the island. Victory can be achieved in several ways: commanding territories filled with rival clans, expanding your presence across the land, or holding sacred ground where ancient sanctuaries stand.

Each round begins with a tense card draft where players choose the actions that will shape the coming conflicts. Once the cards are revealed, clans move across the island, battles erupt, alliances shift, and carefully laid plans unfold.

Expansion and influence are just as important as strength. Players settle new territories, construct citadels and sanctuaries, and maneuver through a web of diplomacy where todays ally may become tomorrows rival. Negotiation, promises, and betrayals are all part of the path to the throne.

Epic Tale cards inspired by Celtic mythology add powerful effects and memorable moments to each game, while multiple victory conditions ensure that no single strategy dominates the battlefield.

Beautifully illustrated and deeply strategic, Inis offers a rich mix of tactical decisions, negotiation, and mythic storytelling where every game tells a different legend.

Inis is a game deeply rooted in Celtic history and lore in which players win by being elected King of the Island (Inis). Players can try to achieve one of three different victory conditions:

Leadership: Be the leader – i.e., have more clan figures than any other player – of territories containing at least six opponents’ clans.
Land: Have your clans present in at least six different territories.
Religion: Have your clans present in territories that collectively contain at least six sanctuaries.
