Hey folks! Ready for another adventure with the Corps of Discovery? This time, the expedition ventures deeper into uncharted territories, and what they find is… a bit creepy! The forests are swarming with giant insects, and the only way to deal with this plague is a potent insecticide. The catch? All the scientific gear was left behind on the boat. To make matters worse, an amphibious monster, the Ranidae, lurks in the river waters, right on the path between the shore and the vessel, making resource transport a real hassle. You'll need to use all your wits to figure out how to gather the ingredients and concoct the poison, all while avoiding this terrifying creature. It's a deduction and logistics challenge that will test your ability to think fast and plan every move. This expansion brings fresh challenges and dangers to the base game, requiring you to adapt to new threats and strategies. If you enjoy solving puzzles under pressure and exploring the unknown, this one's for you! Get your notebooks ready, because science and survival go hand in hand in this new undertaking.
