About this expansion

Lost Cities: Expedition 6 – The Lost Expedition is a 2016 promo pack for two players, adding a sixth expedition to the old base game for a playing time of about 30 minutes.

This expansion introduces a set of grey cards that follows the same rules as the other five expeditions. Shuffle the new cards into the base-game deck, place the included discard-space card beside the game board, and play as usual with six expeditions available.

The new expedition includes cards numbered 2 through 10, along with its own wager cards. Its discard pile uses the reverse side of the instruction card, providing the additional discard space required for the sixth route.

  • 9 expedition cards with values from 2 to 10
  • 3 wager cards
  • 1 sixth discard pile card, using the back of the instruction card
  • Instructions for adding the expedition to the base game

With the exception of the setup and component changes described in the instructions, the base-game rules remain the same. The Lost Expedition therefore offers a straightforward way to extend the original game while preserving its established play system.

The pack was given out at Gen Con 2016. The revised version of Lost Cities already includes a sixth expedition printed on the back of the board; in that edition, the expedition is purple rather than grey.
