Who it's for

Players who like pick-up-and-deliver logistics with a strong sense of place and a two-hour arc of route optimization.

Not for you if…

You want fast decisions – Sand is a long, calculation-heavy trek that rewards patience over momentum.

Vibe's take

Deliberate and expedition-like – route planning, dice-driven movement and upgrade choices make each crossing feel like a logistical gamble you set up three turns earlier.

About this game

Sand is a caravan game where you drive giant caterpillars across a dried-out desert, hauling cargo between ruined cities while quietly seeding the plants that bring the wasteland back to life.
