Rise of the Jarls is a fun, quick-paced mini game, featuring some of the mechanics from the base game of Vendel to Viking.

Each turn represents a generation, and you seek to outmaneuver the other families through the generations. At the end of the game, the player who has completed the most goals and has dominance in the most important places is the true winner!

6 Jarl tokens from Rise of the Jarls can be used with the base game of Vendel to Viking.
