Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Do I need the base game Robinson Crusoe to play with the Book of Adventures?
Absolutely! The Book of Adventures is an expansion, so it adds content and scenarios to the base game Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island.
What type of player is this expansion suitable for?
This edition is super versatile! It has scenarios for those who want something lighter and fun for the family, all the way to very challenging scenarios for experienced players looking to test their limits.
How long does a game take with the new scenarios?
The game time remains similar to the base game, usually between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the chosen scenario and the players' experience.
Does the Gamefound edition include extra physical components besides the scenarios?
Yes! The Gamefound edition includes exclusive stretch goals, such as a deluxe cover, special paper, stickers, and other extras that won't be in the retail version.
Does the game require translation to be played?
Yes, the language dependency is considered high. You will need to translate the text from the scenarios and cards to play comfortably.
Does this expansion add more playable characters?
The main focus is on new scenarios and challenges. While some scenarios might introduce new situations or enemies, the expansion itself doesn't add new playable characters based on variable powers mechanics, but rather new ways to use the existing ones.
