On an uninhabited island in an unexplored sea, explorers have found traces of a great civilization. Now, you lead an expedition to explore the island, find hidden artifacts, and face fearsome guardians, all in a quest to learn the secrets of the island.
In addition to traditional deck building mechanics, cards can also be used to place workers, and new worker actions become available as players explore the island. Some of these actions require resources instead of workers, so it is crucial to build a solid resource base. You are limited to only one action per turn, so choose carefully... which action will benefit you the most now? And what can you afford to do later... assuming someone else doesn't take that action first!?
The decks are small, and randomness in the game is greatly reduced by the many tactical decisions that the game board offers. With a variety of worker actions, artifact, and equipment cards, the setup for each game will be unique and encourage players to explore new strategies to meet the challenge.
