In Cartographers: A Roll Player Tale, players compete to earn the most reputation stars by the time four seasons have passed. Each season, players draw on their map sheets and earn reputation by carrying out the queen's edicts before the season is over. The player with the most reputation stars at the end of winter wins!

De mi top 3 de Flip&Write. Juego muy copado. Funciona en modo solitario. Solido por donde lo mires.

No le doy 10 por las instrucciones que son terribles y los componentes que son reguleros

Хорошенький и вайбовый флипнрайт. Соло играется с костылём в виде монстров. Нуждается в цветных карандашах.

A very interesting roll (flip) and write games, very intriguing mechanics for the genre.

Small form factor game that's easy to teach and get into. Everyone is marking their own board with a pen and has their own customized sheet at the end. This leads to a satisfying game. Very few cards involved, works in nearly all situations (when you have a solid ground that you can draw on). Recommended.
