Queen Gimnax has commanded the reclamation of the northern lands. As a dedicated cartographer in her service, you're dispatched to map this uncharted territory and claim it for the Kingdom of Nalos. The queen publicly announces her most - desired lands via official edicts. Meeting her demands will boost your reputation. But you're not alone in the wilderness. The Dragul set up outposts to contest your claims, so you must draw your territorial lines carefully to minimize their influence. The cartographer who reclaims the largest share of the queen's desired lands will be hailed as the greatest in the kingdom! In Cartographers, players race to earn the most reputation stars over four seasons. Each season, draw on your map sheets and fulfill the queen's edicts before the season ends to gain reputation. The player with the most reputation stars at the end of winter emerges victorious!
How to play: Start the game by becoming a cartographer in Queen Gimnax's service. Over four seasons, draw on your map sheets to claim the northern lands for the Kingdom of Nalos. Try to meet the queen's edicts each season to earn reputation stars. Remember, the Dragul are also in the area, so draw your lines carefully to limit their influence. The player with the most reputation stars at the end of winter wins. Things to note: Pay close attention to the queen's edicts as they change each season. Make sure to plan your moves in advance to outmaneuver the Dragul. Maintenance advice: Keep your map sheets flat and clean to ensure clear drawing. Store the game components in a dry place to prevent damage.
