About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey board game fanatics! If you enjoyed the icy journey of 'Through Ice & Snow', get ready because the adventure doesn't stop! This expansion, 'Myths & Legends', arrives to supercharge your Arctic experience. Forget the ship for a moment and feel the anguish of expeditions forced to survive on foot amidst the ice – it's pure adrenaline! How about diving deep into the rich Inuit mythology? Discover the power of legends and feel the ancestral energy guiding your moves. For history buffs, the 'Legendary Expeditions' module puts you in command of great explorers, reliving historical events and maneuvering their ships through treacherous seas. The expansion doesn't stop there and also brings two new solo scenarios: 'The Mysterious Epidemic', where you race against time to uncover a mysterious illness, and 'The Voyage of Amundsen', an epic race to the pole. With new modules, cards, pieces, and modular boards, replayability is through the roof! The language dependency is moderate, so you might need a little help with translated cards, but nothing that stops the fun. Prepare for more strategy, more challenges, and more immersion in this fascinating icy world!
