About the game

What you do in a play session

Trails of Tucana: Ferry is the expansion that takes your ferry journey to the next level. With two new boards, you’ll discover brand‑new maps of Isla Bahía and Isla Habitazur, where ferries help you cross stretches of sea and connect villages. The expansion’s highlight is the addition of three extra villages on Isla Habitazur, adding new objectives and planning challenges. Players can still use the same base game components, such as ferry tokens and action cards, but now there are more route options and more points of interest. The bingo mechanic remains, but the combinations are now based on ferry routes, requiring careful planning of your moves. Network building and line drawing are also intensified, as each island has multiple connection points. Additionally, the expansion introduces timing challenges, as ferries can only cross the sea on certain turns, forcing players to plan ahead. The board artwork has been refreshed with vibrant illustrations that bring the new islands to life. Extra components include differently coloured ferry tokens, event cards that alter sea conditions, and victory point tokens that reward efficient routes. The game balance stays intact, as each island offers distinct advantages and disadvantages, and players must choose their routes wisely. In short, Trails of Tucana: Ferry expands the base game’s universe, offering new maps, new ferry rules, and an extra layer of strategy that keeps the experience fresh and engaging. Get ready to navigate, connect, and conquer the islands with your new ferry routes.
