In The Guild of Merchant Explorers (nominated for Kennerspiel des Jahres 2024), you embark on a journey of discovery, exploring uncharted territories, establishing new settlements, and building trade routes. If you proceed skillfully, your already developed territory grows each round, giving you a better starting position in the next round to discover even more.

All players start with an identical game board, from the center of which they begin their journey of discovery. Terrain cards determine which areas can be explored. Explored areas are marked with small cubes. As soon as an entire region has been explored, a settlement is formed, which can be the starting point for further discoveries in subsequent rounds. The more settlements you build, the larger the area you can explore.

If you succeed in connecting the cities already on the map, exploring areas with a lighthouse or a shipwreck, and making optimal use of the Investigation Cards, you will go down in history as the greatest explorer in the Guild of Merchant Explorers.

Reasoning of the Spiel des Jahres jury:

"This royal expedition is light and accessible, without lacking strategic depth. The individual exploration abilities provide a lot of variety and invite experimentation. The four maps, which depict the different regions of the country, offer additional variation and further incentives through new game mechanics."

Nominated for Kennerspiel des Jahres 2024; Numerous tasks to complete; Building a trade network; Improving your starting position after a successful round.
