Sagnir (formerly known as Mythical Island) is a tile laying game for 2 – 4 players, age 14 and up. Throughout the game, players will draw Mythical Being cards that show a certain arrangement of the five different Landscape tiles.

The players’ aim is to arrange the Landscape tiles on the table to create the pattern shown on the Mythical Beings’ card. Then players need to move their pawn onto a tile of this pattern to activate the Mythical Being card, scoring points that are counted at the end of the game.

The game ends when any player has activated a certain number of Mythical Beings, according to number of players. The player with the highest score wins.

All Mythical Beings in the game are based on Icelandic & Nordic folklore. Descriptions and stories of each Being can be found in the separate Mythiopedia booklet.
