On an uninhabited island in uncharted seas; explorers have found traces of a great civilization. Now you will lead an expedition to explore the island; find lost artifacts; and face fearsome guardians; all in a quest to learn the island's secrets.
Lost Ruins of Arnak combines deck-building and worker placement in a game of exploration; resource management; and discovery. In addition to traditional deck-builder effects; cards can also be used to place workers; and new worker actions become available as players explore the island. Some of these actions require resources instead of workers; so building a solid resource base will be essential. You are limited to only one action per turn; so make your choice carefully... what action will benefit you most now? And what can you afford to do later... assuming someone else doesn't take the action first!?
Decks are small; and randomness in the game is heavily mitigated by the wealth of tactical decisions offered on the game board. With a variety of worker actions; artifacts; and equipment cards; the set-up for each game will be unique; encouraging players to explore new strategies to meet the challenge.
