What is Stake Your Claim?
Stake Your Claim is our fifth game from No Box Games, coming to Kickstarter in early 2025. You’re all mapmakers out to map the terrain around you. Use dice from one of four terrains to generate numbers, then claim that combination of terrain and number on the main board. Control areas and numbers to score points.
Sheets provided: one or more map sheets, one scoreboard design.
Components needed: one uniquely-colored marker or pen per player, five six-sided die (one should be of a different color).
Print off a scoreboard for each player and a single map sheet for the middle of the table, and you’re ready to play.
On your turn:
A player’s turn has 4 steps:
1. Take 1 action (optional)
2. Use 1 or 2 dice to generate a number
3. Claim a space on the map
4. Roll the dice you use and score
There are four terrains in the game:
- Mountains are great for generating high numbers (add 5 to one of the dice on the Mountain terrain)
- Deserts are great for low numbers (subtract the lower dice from the higher die)
- Forests can give a great variety (add two dice together to generate a number)
- Rivers can give you the number they show, but if there’s two of a kind, you can claim both of that number!

The Wild die in the middle gives you a little more flexibility. In this example, I can create a 1, 3, or 4 in the desert.
FAQ’s
What do I need to play?
The print-and-play file will have Letter-sized and A4-sized sheets. Just print off 1 scoresheet per player and 1 map for the whole game. Give each player a pen or marker of a unique color and grab 5 dice (ideally 4 of one color and 1 of a different color), and you’re ready to play.
How many players is it for?
Stake Your Claim is a game for 1-6 players.
Are these Letter or A4-sized sheets?
Both! All of our games have Letter and A4-sized PDF’s.
Is there a low-ink / black-and-white version?
Yes!
All No Box Games have a full-color version and a low-ink version. Ink can be expensive, so the low-ink / black-and-white version uses as little ink as possible while keeping some of the fun art to enjoy.
