Inuit: The Snow Folk

Inuit: The Snow Folk is a card-drafting and tableau-building game about growing a specialized village. Each turn, a player scouts the shared Great White display and recruits one type of card from it: Inuit people who strengthen an occupation, animals that score through hunting, spirits that shape end-game value, or weapons and sleds that improve future actions. Elders, shamans, hunters, warriors, and scouts each create a different engine, and choosing a card type can also change what remains available to rivals. The rules are concise, but the accumulating village creates meaningful timing decisions about specialization, denial, and set collection across a brisk thirty-to-forty-five-minute game.
