Expedition Altiplano (2006)

About this game

This is a game for two treasure hunters in ancient Inca ruins. You are both looking for the same relics. But first you put together your exploration team out of archaeologists and soldiers of fortune by drafting cards from the central pile. During the game you can poach staff members off your adversary or salvage a staffer from deadly traps. You do all this to meet the required conditions to find those rare treasures. And because they're rare you'd better not miss them.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.9/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
