What is Broadland: The Norfolk Broads Challenge

Broadland is a thematic Euro game of cruising holidays set on the Norfolk Broads in the 1960s–70s, when wooden motor cruisers and riverside pubs defined an iconic British getaway.

Each player takes command of a family cruiser with a crew of passengers, setting out on a multi-day holiday across the winding waterways of the Northern Broads. Using a mix of planning, etiquette, and a dash of luck, you’ll navigate destinations, visit tourist sites, manage fuel and money, and try to make your passengers happy with fishing, birdwatching, photography, and pub visits.

Victory points come from fulfilling cruise card destinations, making well-timed visits, pursuing hobbies, and keeping your river etiquette intact. But beware tides, weather, and mooring shortages — or you might burn fuel, lose points, or be forced into costly detours.

The game also features a dedicated CruiseBot solo mode, in which an automated opponent follows a priority chart for movement, mooring, and scoring, providing a challenging single-player experience.
