  1. 9 out of 10

    Really neat game that mixes worker placement, set collection, and tableau building in a cool way. My favorite thing is seeing the lovely panoramic picture at the end of the game!

  2. Congratulations to the entire team behind this franchise for managing to release the same mediocre game 12 times in a row (with multiple expansions on top of that) and still having people buy it. A masterclass in marketing. Well done. You deserve the sales as much as your customers deserve your games.

    Playtested it and I really fell in love with this game. Only 1,5 year to wait to play it on my table.

Wayfarers of the South Tigris is set during the height of the Abbasid Caliphate, circa 820 AD. As brave explorers, cartographers and astronomers, players set off from Baghdad to map the surrounding land, waterways, and heavens above. Players must carefully manage their caravan of workers and equipment, while reporting back regularly to journal their findings at the House of Wisdom. Will you succeed in impressing the Caliph, or lose your way and succumb to the wilderness?

The aim of Wayfarers of the South Tigris is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at the game’s end. Points are primarily gained by mapping the land, water, and sky. Players can also gain points from upgrading their caravans, by gaining inspiration from nobles, and by influencing the three guilds of science, trade and exploration. As they make discoveries, players will want to quickly journal their progress. The game ends once one player’s marker has reached the far right column of the journal track.
