Description

Rumors tell of a mysterious lost island that was once home to a seclusive people. Little is known about these people except their reverence for the island’s legendary Guardians. Dr. Gerard Ortiz, long-obsessed with finding this island, has pinpointed its location. He has shared this information with a select group of archeologists, promising great riches and renown to those who find artifacts and the grand temple to the Guardians.

In Isle of Mystery, compete with your fellow archeologists to find artifacts scattered across the island while avoiding the creatures that continue to watch over the land. Your objective is to earn Renown Points by collecting sets of artifacts. The player who ends the game with the most renown wins!


Setup: During setup, you will quickly transform the box halves and map tiles into a multileveled island. You'll place the Guardians, grab your pack and some clues, and get your archeologists ready to discover some treasure.

End game: As you explore the island, you will get closer and closer to finding the ultimate treasure, the lost temple. When any player claims the temple, the game ends, and players total their final scores. The player with the most Renown Points wins!
