Overview

Expeditions, the sequel to Scythe, takes players on a thrilling journey into Siberia, where a massive meteorite crash near the Tunguska River has awakened ancient corruption. Led by Dr. Tarkovsky, an expedition ventures into the taiga to uncover the meteorite’s secrets and its impact on the land. Meanwhile, war heroes, eager for adventure, privately fund their own expeditions, seeking artifacts, overcoming challenges, and striving for glory. Expeditions introduces entirely new mechanisms while capturing the essence of Scythe with a darker, more supernatural theme. It is a competitive, card-driven, engine-building game of exploration. Players play cards to gain power, guile, and unique worker abilities; move their mechs to mysterious locations to acquire new cards; and use workers, items, meteorites, and quests to enhance their mechs. Power and guile are essential to vanquish corruption and succeed in this perilous adventure.
