What is Sumatra
Join this expedition, and you will have the unforgettable opportunity to explore Sumatra, from the top of its majestic volcanoes to the depths of its tropical rainforest. Find the most exotic animals and the most exuberant flowers, and discover the endless variety of cultures that coexist on the largest island in Indonesia. Your expedition sets out with the mission of writing a travel notebook that will help raise awareness of one of the richest ecosystems in the world. Whoever makes the best contribution to this exciting mission will win.
In Sumatra, players move around the island to explore its multiple landscapes. On a turn, your possible actions depend on where you're located in relation to the travel notebook token that starts the game in base camp with all the players:
If you're one space behind the token, you move to the notebook's space and end your turn.
If you're on the same location as the token, either you move ahead one space or you stay put, take a tile from the pool of "available information" tiles, and add it to your personal notebook.

What the community says about Sumatra
I had tried it before as a prototype, and although I liked the setting more in the prototype, the game is as nice as I remembered. This is a very light and easy set collection, in which the good part of the game is in the timing. A very light but also interesting interaction mechanism between players, I do think the game offers more than you may see. It may be seen as too light and not worth the effort to play it deeply, but I think it can be a really interesting game.
