About this board game

Lost Cities: Das Abenteuer To Go is a portable push-your-luck tile game for 2 players, with games lasting about 20 minutes. In this compact expedition challenge, you compete to forge paths through some of the world’s most dangerous environments while trying to stay ahead and win.

Choose from expeditions across the Himalayas, along volcanoes, under water, through the rainforest, or across the desert. Every step requires a tile in the color of the expedition you are pursuing, but each new tile must be higher than the one placed previously. Finding the right combination of tiles is the key to building successful routes.

  • Five colorful expeditions: the Himalayas, volcanoes, underwater exploration, rainforest, and desert
  • Ascending tile placement that challenges you to manage timing and risk
  • A storage area where you can keep up to two tiles for later use
  • Raid tiles that help you discard a few tiles
  • Extra actions provided by the lowest-numbered tiles: 2, 3, and 4

The storage option gives you a way to hold useful tiles until the right moment, while raid tiles can help clear away unwanted options. The special actions on the lowest-numbered tiles add further possibilities to each expedition and can create surprising turns.

Lost Cities: Das Abenteuer To Go brings the familiar Lost Cities scoring rules into a handy travel format, with additional ideas inspired by the portable Keltis experience. If you enjoy calculated risks, rising-number sequences, and tense decisions over which tile to play next, this two-player expedition game offers a compact way to test your judgment.
