With science at the forefront of the discovery of this new island, it's no surprise that several expeditions have been mounted to map out what is now known as Misterra! Taking the lead on one of these explorative missions, you'll move around the island, mapping it's topography and taking calculated assumptions to appease your sponsors. But the question remains, will your expedition garner the most prestige?
 
In Maps of Misterra, you'll take it in turns to carry out 2 half day expeditions each, moving around the board and either mapping out the terrain or laying claim to the regions. The various terrain types have special abilities which can be activated at various times during your turn based upon the type of terrain your meeple is on at the time. These may allow you to replace the available sketch cards, move your meeple around the board, restrict your actions or see more of the island. With each player having their own parchment map which can influence the confirmed terrain types on the main map board, you'll not only need to keep an eye on the central board, but also on the actions your opponents are taking to ensure you stand the best chance of success. The game ends after the round in which either all the spaces on the island board are confirmed, you run out of sketch cards, or a player covers all the spaces of their parchment. Tally up the prestige earnt by each player and with the most points wins.
 
Will fidelity to the island board secure you the victory or will your sponsors influence help you clench the victory from your opponents?
