Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Engine Building: Efficiency — Endgame engine-building bonuses can increase actions like movement length or harvest value.
- Engine-building benefits — Endgame engine-building bonuses can increase actions like movement length or harvest value.
- Golem activation and scoring — Golem tokens are collected and used for scoring; at end of the game, points come from golems, outpost bonuses, and any leftover crystals.
- Harvest action — Visiting locations can yield harvest actions, which simply result in gaining crystals (e.g., two yellow crystals).
- Outpost-building at mountain tiles — When visiting a mountain tile, a player may build a trading outpost there; the first player to build in a location does so for free, while future players must spend crystals depending on the number of outposts already there.
- Printed trades via outposts — Once an outpost is present, a player may make the printed trade in crystals at that location; trades may be made multiple times on the same turn.
- Wagon movement on a track — On each turn players will move their wagon one space or further by leaving behind a crystal on any spaces skipped.
