If you're a fan of Lost Cities and have already explored all the original expeditions, check out this new addition: the Sixth Expedition! This little gem, which emerged as a special promo at Gen Con 2016, adds a new set of grey cards to the base game. Think of it as a new adventure waiting to be uncovered, following the same rules as the other five expeditions you already know and love. The objective remains the same: assemble the best expeditions by wisely managing your hand of cards to maximize your points. Each card played increases the value of your expedition, but be careful not to rush! You need a keen eye to know when to take risks and when to hold back. This expansion brings a new layer of strategy without overcomplicating things, maintaining the fast-paced and engaging experience that made Lost Cities famous. If you have the latest version of the game, the sixth expedition might already be printed on the back of the board (usually in purple). But if you have the older version or want that feeling of owning an exclusive item, this pack of grey cards is the right choice. It's the perfect opportunity to inject new energy into your games and surprise your opponent with new tactics. Get ready for another journey into the unknown! ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game Lost Cities to play with this expansion? Yes, absolutely!
