Latice Hawai'i

About the game

What is Latice Hawai'i?

For eons, Pele fought Mo’o for dominion over Hawai’i. Mo’o summoned the elements and the animals of Hawai’i to create an insurmountable challenge. Do you have what it takes to become the champion of Hawai’i? In Latice Hawai’i, players take turns laying tiles that each present an animal and an element. Tile placement requires the animal or element to match adjacent tiles. Players earn extra moves through superior strategy. Easy to learn, hard to master, Latice Hawai’i is an excellent addition to any collection, be it humble as a gecko or worthy of the game rooms of Maui and Pele. The new edition features new components and thoughtfully revised content to create the best possible updated version of the game. Rules have been added for "kid mode", "timed modes", and "advanced player modes" —description from the publisher
