Bonjour, and welcome to Postcards, a board game about exploring the beauty of France — one postcard at a time!

Hop on your bicycle and set out on a picturesque adventure, as you compete with your friends to enjoy the most unforgettable holiday! Designed for 1-4 players, Postcards is a family friendly game that takes you on a journey across France, filled with inspiring culture, stunning landscapes, and delicious local cuisine.

The aim of the game is simple: cycle through the 13 different regions of France, visit as many iconic locations as possible, and share your travels by sending postcards back home. Each postcard you send brings you one step closer to victory, so grab your friends, get pedaling, and let the adventures begin!

On your turn, you'll be playing Travel cards to perform the different actions available: take a new Postcard, set up Camp, put a Stamp on one of your Postcards, or Move to a new region.

Postcards are the main way you'll be scoring points during the game, so be sure to look out for postcards from areas which match your travel itinerary objective! Certain Postcards are worth more points than others, but be careful: the higher its point value, the more stamps you'll need to send it off.

Stamping your Postcards uses up your precious Travel cards, limiting what you can do on your turn, so choose wisely… To send a Postcard, you have to be in the region it's from, so make sure you have enough Travel cards to get there!

All that cycling is hard work, so be sure to spend some time relaxing! The Camp action allows you to enjoy local attractions in the regions you visit, collecting souvenirs as you go, which give you extra points and bonuses during play.

The game ends when one player has sent their fourth postcard, and the winner is the player who’s collected the most points through their travels.

Are you ready to set out on a journey of a lifetime?

Postcards is a simple game that whole family can enjoy, but has plenty of strategy to keep you thinking as you play! Lovingly designed and illustrated by a team of self-professed francophiles, Postcards is sure to make you want to plan your own trip to France.
