How it plays

Build the highest-scoring expedition by exploring sites, overcoming guardians, collecting cards, and advancing your research. On your turn, play a card or place an archaeologist to travel, gain resources, discover sites, buy cards, defeat guardians, or research, using your leader’s unique abilities. After five rounds, total points from research, guardians, sites, cards, and remaining resources; most points wins.

Main mechanics explained

  • Deck / bag building: You shape your own deck or bag of resources as you play.
  • Drafting: You pick from a shared pool and pass the rest along.
  • Worker placement: You claim limited action spots before anyone else does.
