Introduction:

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!

This new edition features updated artwork and adds an extra expedition for exploring, bring the total from five to six.

Features:

The Game Board:

The new double-sided game board depicts routes upon which players strive to form expeditions throughout the course of the game. The routes lead to remote and mysterious corners around the world: the Himalayan mountains, the Central American rainforest, the Egyptian desert, a mysterious volcano, and the bottom of the sea. Play the standard five expedition game on one side or flip the board over to play the optional game variant with six expeditions!

The Cards:

Six decks of cards with bright, bold, colorful artwork are included in this edition. For the intro game, play with the blue, yellow, orange, white, and green decks. Fans who want a longer experience can add in the sixth deck of purple cards!

Game Attributes:

Card tactics are key to winning this strategy game for two players! Be ready to take chances and test your luck!

How to Play:

The rules of the game are very simple, but don't get the wrong impression! There is much more to Lost Cities than it might seem at first glance. Each player starts with 8 cards distributed at random. The remaining cards are placed in a draw pile beside the board. During each turn, a player must either place a card on one of his or her expedition columns, or discard a card face up on the board. Discarding a card allows the other player to snatch it up on his or her next turn!

1 Game board (double-sided)
54 Expedition cards (large format, in 6 colors; values 2-10 in each color)
