PLAYED FOR YOU

Wild Oltrenatura

Paths trough the Wilderness

We are parachuting into the savannahs of Kenya, the deserts of Namibia, the jungles of Columbia or the glaciers and mountains of Alaska. In all those regions we must assist Fiammetta Cicogna to find the best ways to travel on foot or on waterways in order to meet most animals while making sure that she always has sufficient energy, water and medication.

You use as many landscapes as there are players; you choose a landscape, only one player per landscape is allowed at the start. Tokens are placed according to the set-up rules. In a turn you can either move or eat or rest. You may move up to three steps, using energy and water. At a natural resource spot you can stop and use it. When you meet animals you must stop and dice are rolled to decide the encounter; the better result decides; when Fiammetta wins she receives token and card of the animal; if she loses her health is reduced. In order to eat you discard an animal token plus the animal card and you record the energy amount the animal yields for your explorer.

When you rest you can record +1 one for energy, water or health. You can also challenge opponents, the challenge is decided by animal cards; the challenger decides if the highest or lowest value wins; whoever wins the challenge gets the animal card. When you reach the marked spot you move your explorer into the next landscape setting.

Most important is this marvelous family game is the balance between collecting resources and move along the path; because when somebody has explored all landscapes you win if you have the highest total from causing the end of game and remaining resources.
