About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever dreamed of taking a vacation without the hassle of airports or expensive flights? With Touristes Temporels, your only problem will be deciding whether you'd rather witness the Renaissance, watch medieval castles being built, or even share a space with dinosaurs from the prehistoric era! This is a fast-paced, fun card game, perfect for gathering friends and having a laugh while trying not to cause a historical disaster.

The gameplay is straightforward and punchy: each player receives a set of destination cards and must choose where to travel. You place your card face down to keep the mystery alive until everyone has made their choice. Once the cards are revealed, the real fun begins with dice rolling. As you roll the dice, you find out if your visit will trigger the famous 'butterfly effect.' If you roll butterfly icons, you must place butterfly tokens on your chosen destination.

But watch out! Each era has a tolerance threshold. If the number of butterfly tokens reaches that limit, a catastrophic time distortion occurs! The result? Everyone at that destination suffers a point penalty and all tokens are cleared. If you manage to keep the timeline intact, you claim the points for that destination. However, don't get too comfortable: the tokens left behind remain for the next round, so your next destination might be a trap if you aren't watching your fellow travelers closely. It's a game of light bluffing, observation, and, of course, plenty of luck with the dice to ensure your trip through time doesn't end in a temporal meltdown!
