Through The Desert, designed by the renowned Reiner Knizia and published by Allplay, returns as a celebrated classic. Players guide caravans of five different colored camels across the desert, competing for points at watering holes and oases, while securing territories by enclosing sections of the board with camels.
The game stands out for its tight, strategic gameplay. While the board seems open at the start, it becomes more challenging as the game progresses, leading to a high-stakes competition by the end. This new edition features stunning artwork by Damien Mammoliti, with updated camel designs that are both cute and functional.
Allplay's version boasts a compact box, a larger board, and new expansions that introduce fresh mechanics and challenges to enrich the core game.
