Object Cards
There are 20 Object cards (including 14 new effects) marked with the expansion symbol (a leaf-topped sack icon). Shuffle these cards in with the Wreckage cards from the base game.
Use these new cards in exactly the same way as those of the base game. The effects are explained on each card, but if you have any questions, visit this website: www.hellapagos.com
Example card (Cat): "If food rations are 0, play to gain 2 food rations."
Character Cards
As the adventure unfolds, the castaways discover talents, passions, or roles in the community… for better or worse!
Before starting the game, shuffle the 20 Character cards and deal one to each player. Return the others to the box; you will not need them this game.
Place your Character card face up in front of you; it must remain visible throughout the game. Each character grants a power (bonus and/or penalty) to its owner.
This power might be permanent, or might apply only once during the game, depending on the card.
If a character's power conflicts with the rules of the base game, the instructions on the Character card prevail.
If you die during the game, discard your Character card.
Note: For a game with fewer than 5 players, do not use the Character cards marked 5+ and 6+. In a 5-player game, include the 5+ cards; with 6 players or more, include the 5+ and 6+ cards.
Event Cards
The adventurers have not seen the last of their woes: By venturing further into the jungle, they discover that other castaways populate the island. Considering their getup and their uncivilized manners, it seems they have been here for quite some time…. Friends or enemies? Can't wait to find out….
Creating the Event Deck
The Event cards are divided into 3 levels (see the backs of the cards: Level I, Level II and Level III).
Separate the cards into 3 decks according to their level, then form a new deck of 12 cards as follows: I, II, III / I, II, III / I, II, III / I, II, III, so the first card visible is a Level I card, the second is a Level II card, the third is a Level III card, the fourth is a Level I card, etc. This new deck generates your scenario for this game.
Return the other Event cards to the box; you will not need them this game.
Resolving Events
These events represent important moments that will punctuate the game. At the beginning of each round, before revealing the next Weather card, the first player reveals the first Event card from the deck. Unless otherwise indicated on the card, this event must be resolved immediately before you can continue the round. Everyone can discuss it to find a solution, but in the end, the first player makes the decisions.
Example: "A Thirsty Maniac: Immediately discard a water bottle card or lose 3 rations of water."
In this case, either a player in the group decides to discard a bottle of water, or the group loses 3 rations of water on the survival track. If the group has fewer than 3 rations of water, the group loses all of the water rations. If the group has no water rations, you can simply discard the Event card, feeling unthreatened.
Then the game continues normally. These cards can provide beneficial, neutral, or detrimental effects. Sometimes Event cards will require the group to make choices.
If the Event card says to gain or lose different resources, you can choose any combination of resources.
Example: "Deserted Camp: Take 2 resources of your choice."
The group could gain:
- 2 food, or 2 water, or 2 of the yellow-icon resource,
- or 1 food and 1 water,
- or 1 food and 1 yellow-icon resource,
- or 1 water and 1 yellow-icon resource.
Note: the yellow-icon resource is not labelled in this booklet; it is transcribed here as "yellow-icon resource".
