Unique locations

Players place a meeple of the required color and must immediately pay its associated cost in coins to occupy the space. Once the space is occupied by a player, no one else can take that space.

Unique locations

Example: Lucy (the yellow player) wants to place a meeple on the second space of the Temple. She pays 4 coins to place an archaeologist on the space. The other players won’t be able to choose this space anymore.

The Temple, the Stela of Knowledge and the Village are unique locations.

Bidding locations

These locations don’t have a fixed cost but instead use a bidding system. When a player chooses a bidding location, they place as many meeples of the required color as they like.

If the player can choose the meeple color , they have to choose either an adventurer or an archaeologist , but not a mix of both.

Afterward, another player can take the space by placing more meeples than the previous player. However, those meeples must be of the same color as the previous ones. The previous player recovers their meeples without switching their sides and will be able to use them later, on the same round.

LES EMPLACEMENTS À ENCHÈRE

Example: Jon (the red player) has placed 2 adventurers on the Quarry. Lucy decides to go there too, so she places 3 adventurers and kicks Jon, who takes his 2 adventurers back without switching their sides. He will be able to use them later on the same round.

Clarification: If a player places only their Character meeple on a bidding location , another player who wants to take their space can place a meeple of any color. This will determine the color for the next players.

The Temple Surroundings, the Black Market and the Ships are bidding locations.

Free locations

These locations are open to more than one player during a round. Additionally, the same player can visit those locations multiple times during the round.

LES EMPLACEMENTS LIBRES

Example: Maria (the green player) places a second meeple on the Harbor Master’s Office and pays 2 coins. Other players can still choose this location and she can visit it later in the round.

The Camp and the Harbor Master’s Office are free locations.
