My favourite 2 player game

Really quick and easy to play, the simplicity of a turn (pick one up, put one down) really leads to agonizing decisions about the cost of getting a card that helps you vs giving away a card that helps you opponent. Whilst there is a bit of "luck of the draw" to the game, you're more likely to hurt by your opponent or your own gambles than the deck so it ends up feeling very strategic, despite the simplicity.

Easy to learn, tricky to master

It's a really solid two player game. Some luck, some judgement, some strategy. Straightforward to start playing.

Quick and not massively interesting

It’s very quick to learn the rules but a bit disappointing the game’s over so quick. We’ve only played a couple of times, it might take a while to get into but my partner has already lost interest in it. The cards and game is good quality and the delivery was quick. I’d buy from Thirsty Meeples again but would maybe try the game out first.

A quick and light 2 player game.

Learning the game is quite simple (I watched one five min youtube video) and it's great fun, we've played it 4 or 5 times now. Well worth the price.

OVERVIEW

Who will discover the ancient civilizations? Two explorers embark on research journeys to remote corners of the world: the Himalayan mountains, the Central American rainforest, the Egyptian desert, a mysterious volcano, and the bottom of the sea. As the cards are played, the expedition routes take shape and the explorers earn points. The most daring adventurers make bets on the success of their expeditions. The explorer with the highest score after three rounds of expeditions wins. The rules of the game are simple, but beware: The lost cities hold many unseen mysteries!

Includes Milestones expansion.
