How It Plays
Area Majority / Influence
You're competing to have the most presence in key areas on the board — think of it like a friendly turf war.
Hand Management
You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.
Pick-up and Deliver
You pick up goods from one location and deliver them to another for rewards — efficient routes mean big payoffs.
Point to Point Movement
You move between connected locations on the board — the map's layout decides your travel options.
Tile Placement
You lay tiles on the table to build a map, landscape, or pattern — every piece you place changes the board.
Variable Phase Order
The order of game phases can change each round depending on player choices — keeps everyone on their toes.
