Released in 2024, this game is easy to learn and can be played in just 15 minutes, making it a great option for a fun break. In this game, players take on the role of travelers, aiming to build the best mix of cards in their Journey and Scrapbook to win. Each turn, they must decide whether to add a new card to their Journey row, risking the reveal of too many Hazards of the same type, or to Rest and move cards to their Scrapbook row. As players navigate the game, they'll need to balance their risk and strategy to earn the most points. Stars on the cards will earn them points, while Skulls will cost them, and special abilities can provide extra points based on specific placements or conditions.
