Product Information

Only certain cards are attack cards, so the other cards are used to step your way to being able to play those. The journal will explain clearly how you will score your performance, again, rewarding you with coins for your kitty. It’s a new cooperative board game designed by the team at Prospero Hall and published by Funko Games. If someone draws a snake card, the whole game pauses while they try and roll a torch on the die (2 in 6 chance).

Meanwhile for one of the pathways it was unclear if the template had to be used the whole time or if it was only used to solve a secondary objective. If you defeat the Villain before the sand timer runs out, awesome – they get sent away and the game is reset in readiness for the next one including swapping in a new action tile (although note that any upgrade cards played to the action deck are retained in a light but very effective nod to deck building! Collaborating with Lucasfilm on Indiana Jones has been a dream, with the whole Funko Games team flexing their creative muscles as we designed a truly original slate of games. Face booby traps, menacing villains, and supernatural threats in this puzzle-filled, action-packed “escape room” game.But, in almost trick-taking style, you can only lay a card that matches the colour or symbol of the card laid before it. Overall, the pathways are fun and it’s harder than it seems to visually draw the path while looking at the map.

Interestingly, the license for the game appears to only include the titular character “Indiana Jones”.

If you haven’t, you can still play the game and have fun but you should bookmark this page, go watch the films, and then come back to read this later. But if you are looking for a light, cooperative game that you can play with just about anyone, Indiana Jones: Sands of Adventure is worth a look. I suggest you put on your best Indie hat and play the theme tune and fully immerse yourself in the game. Then you’ll move this sheet one pen’s length from the card and try to draw the best path you can, picking up objectives and trying to avoid hazards. The giant serpent headed sand timer works brilliantly, and its operation is integral to the gameplay itself!

Includes 3 adventures with unique envelopes of components to decipher clues, outwit foes, and escape perils!Communication is important and it make work for some groups to designate a leader to facilitate the Timed Phase.
