Cartaventura: Lhasa

Players undertake a cooperative expedition across Ceylon, India and the Himalayas in search of the missing explorer and spiritualist Alexandra David-Neel. The group reveals the story by flipping cards to build a map of locations, then makes collective decisions at each juncture that steer the route and outcomes. Play progresses card by card, teaching mechanics as the narrative unfolds and branching toward one of five possible endings. Supports up to six players and emphasizes exploration, shared decision-making, and replayable narrative paths.
