Welcome to Riverside, an enchanting roll-and-write game that transports you to a breathtaking, remote winter landscape where frozen rivers carve through the icy terrain.

Here, a thrilling adventure awaits as you embark on unforgettable river cruises alongside a small tour company offering captivating excursions. As a tour guide, your mission is to attract eager tourists ready for extraordinary activities—think polar bear safaris, reindeer trips, and exhilarating ice fishing escapades. And if fortune smiles upon you, you might even witness the mesmerizing northern lights!

Each round begins with players rolling dice into a communal pool. From there, you strategically pick a die of a specific color to fill seats on the corresponding guiding boat shown on your player sheet. Completing a row of seats allows you to sell a group ticket of that color, earning points based on the row’s length. But that’s just the beginning—these tickets stay in play, enabling you to score bonus points every time you guide an excursion in a village of that color!

Every decision is crucial in Riverside, where time is short and choices matter. With rows of varying lengths offering unique point values and bonuses, will you chase a quick boost with short rows, or play the long game for bigger rewards? It’s vital to balance the needs of five distinct types of tourists, as doing so can maximize your score.

Keep an eye on the high-value dice that represent colder tourists—they require fire symbols to secure. Manage your limited symbols wisely, because the 'wild' transparent green die also demands them! Engage in strategic thinking and make calculated decisions to become the ultimate tour guide in Riverside.

As the game concludes, the player with the highest score will claim victory! So, grab your dice and get ready for ice fishing adventures and awe-inspiring aurora gazing—every roll could redefine your plans and fortunes!
