This is a war game centred around hunting and combat, in which players lead tribes of early human ancestors attempting to survive the dangers of the Ice Age. From season to season, the tribes try to grow and prosper by participating in various big days that represent important events such as mammoth hunts, cave bear attacks, and clashes with rival tribes. Between these encounters, tribes must gather food, craft tools and weapons, and consult their shamans to prepare for the next threat, whether from enemies, animals, nature, or something even stranger... While the battles and hunts of the Big Days are fought using a turn-based activation system based on a 10-sided die, Hide, Stone, and Bone also offers a detailed campaign system that forms a central part of the gaming experience. Ultimately, it's all about survival - defeating other tribes is not the only goal, and it is possible for tribes to thrive even when the fortunes of war are against them. With options for single-player, cooperative, and competitive play, Hide, Stone, and Bone gives players all the tools they need to face the challenges of the Ice Age and lead their tribes to a prosperous future.
