Embark on a perilous journey to the dangerous north in this exciting tile - exploration sequel to Scythe. The game sends players on a brand - new adventure in Siberia. A huge meteorite crashed near the Tunguska River, waking up ancient corruption. Dr. Tarkovsky leads an expedition into the taiga to study the meteorite and its impact on the land. Heroes from the war, eager for adventure, privately fund their own expeditions to Siberia, aiming to find artifacts, overcome challenges, and win glory. Expeditions is a competitive, card - driven, engine - building exploration game. It gives players similar feelings to Scythe despite different mechanisms. Play cards to get power, guile, and unique worker abilities. Move your mech to mysterious places and collect cards on the tiles. Use workers, items, meteorites, and quests to upgrade your mech. Use power and guile to defeat corruption. The Ironclad Edition of Expeditions comes with 5 large metal mechs (not plastic miniatures) and silicon base snaps (instead of plastic). It also has an individually numbered box with foil lettering. This game is for 1 - 5 players, takes 60+ minutes, and is suitable for ages 14 and up. Key features include exploration, deck, bag, and pool building, grid movement, hand management, melding, and splaying.
How to play: First, gather 1 to 5 players who are 14 years old or above. Each game will take at least 60 minutes. Start the game by playing cards to gain power, guile, and unique worker abilities. Move your mech around the grid to mysterious locations on the tiles and collect cards. Use workers, items, meteorites, and quests to make your mech stronger. Try to use your power and guile to defeat the ancient corruption. Things to note: Be careful when handling the metal mechs in the Ironclad Edition as they might be heavier than plastic ones. Don't lose the silicon base snaps as they are important parts of the game. Maintenance advice: Keep the cards in a dry place to prevent them from getting damaged. You can use a soft cloth to clean the metal mechs if they get dirty. Store the game in its numbered box with foil lettering to keep all parts organized.
