About the Game
In Explorers of the Lost World, you lead a team of two explorers (choose from Cowboy, Movie Director, Geologist, Biologist, Archeologist, Doctor, Journalist through the island, trying to survive dinosaur and giant creature attacks (Almost everything that moves is gigantic and yes there are giant gorillas).
Based on the Source of the Nile mechanics, you will map terrain and discover great and terrible things in almost every hex you visit. Gain Victory points with every time you defend against a creature. Snakes grow to unbelievable lengths and provide additional VP opportunities for their discovery. You will always be tracking at least one specific creature and gain VPs upon its discovery, then move on to another creature type. Rivers, ravines, jungle, mountains, veldt, are some of the terrain features you will face and each provides a local threat upon entering. Additionally there is a great lake that can be crossed for adventure and certain peril as well as a great mysterious mountain with caves to explore for additional treasures and VPs and certain peril.
The explorer with the most victory points at the end, wins.
