Bridges of Shangri-La

The Bridges of Shangri-La is a tactical area-influence game about mountain clans establishing their culture across isolated villages connected by fragile pathways. Players take turns placing masters, recruiting students, or sending students on journeys that destroy the bridges behind them to displace rivals and claim dominant master roles. The player with the most master tiles on the board when the twelfth Stone of the Wise Men is placed wins, with ties broken by the number of occupied villages.
