About
Explore the land with a team of heroes. Make paths and score points to win. Beware of Trail-Reapers!
Important
- Incomplete paths are not scored. Only complete paths will obtain points.
- Bandits only spawn at Obelisks.
- Bandits and Trail-Reapers mean the same thing.
How to Play
- Travel from Inns to Camps to make a complete path.
- Each path gives you points based on the locations you visit.
- When a path is completed, the points of all locations on it are doubled.
- (This is not implemented.) Incomplete paths also provide points at the end of the game, but the location scores are not doubled.
- Achieve the target score within the turn limit to win the game.
- On your turn, you can move one hero to an adjacent location.
- All locations that are part of any path, ongoing or completed, are closed.
- Heroes cannot visit closed locations.
- Trail-Reapers
- After your turn, one Reaper on the map will move to an unoccupied adjacent location.
- If a Reaper moves onto an ongoing path, the path is aborted.
- If a hero moves into a location with a Reaper, the Reaper is removed from the map.
- A new Reaper is added to the map every 5 turns.
- Reapers only spawn at Obelisks.
