## Description
Grab your bicycle and get ready, because the destination is beautiful France! In Postcards, you step into the shoes of an enthusiastic tourist eager to soak up every bit of this amazing country. Your goal is simple yet strategic: pedal through 13 different French regions, visit iconic landmarks, and, of course, send as many postcards as possible back home. Each postcard sent brings you closer to victory, but don't think it's just a casual ride! 

The gameplay revolves around Travel cards used to perform various actions. You can choose to pick up new postcards, set up a camp to relax, apply stamps to your cards, or move to a new region. Here is the trick: to send a postcard, you must be in the specific region where it originated, and higher-value postcards require more stamps. This means careful resource management is key, as every stamp uses up precious Travel cards that could have been used for movement or other actions. 

While exploring, you can also use the camping action to collect souvenirs, which provide extra points and special bonuses. Keep a close eye on your travel itinerary, as matching specific regional objectives can significantly boost your final score. The game wraps up once the first player has successfully sent four postcards. It is a perfect title for those seeking a light, visually stunning experience with just enough strategy to keep everyone engaged. Whether you're a travel lover or just looking for a relaxing family game night, Postcards is your passport to fun!
