How It Plays
Dice Rolling
You roll dice to determine outcomes — there's always that thrilling moment of suspense before they land!
Hand Management
You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.
Memory
You need to remember where things are or what happened earlier — a sharp memory gives you a real advantage.
Modular Board
The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.
Network and Route Building
You connect locations to form networks — the bigger and smarter your network, the more points you earn.
Trading
You can swap resources or cards with other players — making clever trades can give you a serious edge.
