Description

This is one of the games featured in Dice & Ink: A Roll & Write Anthology, and exists as part of that compilation.

In Little Island Gift Shops, each player assumes the role of a shop owner which sells ocean treasures to the passer by, but is also part of the local community trying to thrive. In this cooperative game, players dive for goods and try to put the best possible combinations of goods in all shops, to get the best score possible for everyone. The lowest scoring shop determines the score for the group. Little Island Gift Shops is a set collection game at its core.

On your turn:

Decide how many hours you will dive,
Roll the corresponding dice: the longer you take, the more dice you roll;
Determine which goods you find,
Then either pay the goods as tribute to the ocean to gain powers, put them in your shop for sale, or gift them to your fellow shop owners.
To be successful in Little Island, you will have to both chase your own high score, but also care for the others at the table.

Little Island Gift Shops requires a four-sided die, a six-sided die, an eight-sided die, and a ten-sided die. Components include one player sheet per player, and one communal player aide.
