What is The Guild of Merchant Explorers
In The Guild of Merchant Explorers, each player starts with one city on their personal map board.
Shuffle the deck of terrain cards, then reveal most of these cards one by one. Based on the terrain revealed, each player places on their board cubes that are connected to their starting city or other cubes. You want to complete areas on your board, cross the seas to new land, and establish new cities on the board. You can explore capsized ships for treasure — which gives you special placement capabilities — and create linked connections between locations to score bonus points. Common objectives can be completed by all players, with those who complete it first scoring more points.
At the end of a round, all cubes are removed from each board, leaving only the cities behind, so if you don't establish new cities, you'll be stuck in the same places.
The Guild of Merchant Explorers contains multiple copies of four different maps, and the game is designed so that you can play remotely with one or more copies.

Great chill game, love this more than any roll or flip and write, interesting how the map is handled with the explorers. Very easy to teach, very low interaction, but great and recomended game
Este juego es un autentico vicio. Me encanta
Me lo regalaron Pitu y Richard en la fiesta sorpresa de mi cumpleaños, el 20 de Julio de 2024 Juego fácil de juegar, pero con bastante miga. Es unjuego de exploración y el objetivo es explorar tu mapa a lo largode cuatro eras, ganando dinero con tus acciones. Gana el jugador con más dinero al final de la cuarta ronda. Es bastante resultón el juego. Recomendable y jugable perfectamente por jugones y no jugones. Tira más a familiar que a eurogame.
