Why It's On The List
- Couple a unique treasure-hunting mechanic with beautiful production to create a nifty push-your-luck family game.
Tips & Tricks:
- Read the rules carefully - we messed things up in a couple of different ways because we (gamer-ly) assumed we knew how it would work.
- It doesn't always work - but it's not a bad idea to put clues into each search - so you get something out of every treasure discovery.
- The game ends quicker than you think it will.
Extras
- The one thing missing from the game is a helpful player aid to remind you about amulet powers - thankfully, one has thoughtfully been posted by Evan S over on BoardGameGeek.
- An excellent expansion for the game was published in 2020 - Tobago: Volcano. It's not impossible to teach newbies - but it has some nice twists for folks who've been scavenging about the island a time or two before.
