About the game

What you do in a play session

Get your explorer-hat ready because the journey in Destinies is heading straight into the scorching sands of North Africa! If you thought you had seen it all, Sea of Sand arrives to expand your horizons—and your-challenges-to-a-new-level. Your-mission is to reach the pirate stronghold of Mahdia, but the desert is a cruel mistress. Between the blistering heat, ruthless pirate raids, and the-mythical Ifrit lurking in the dunes, your survival is far from guaranteed.

This expansion introduces a cohesive campaign consisting of three-interconnected scenarios. While we highly recommend playing them in order to experience the full-scale-plot, each-scenario is-designed to stand alone, meaning new players won'-t feel lost if they jump in mid-way. Mechanically,-it's-a-treat: expect new dungeon and maze-mechanics that add layers of tactical-depth, along with a clever'sub-map'-system that captures the vastness of the Sahara without requiring a massive-table-space.

If you-are-a-fan of-narrative-driven-games-and-want-to-immerse-yourself in Arabian-legend, this is a-must-have. Just a-quick-heads-up: the-game-is-heavily-text-dependent, so make sure your-group-is-ready for some reading-heavy-adventure-moments!
