Lava Land (2022)

Overview

Have you heard of Lava Land, a paradise island for tourists and explorers? There is plenty to enjoy: emerald plateaus with ancient temples, tropical fruit growing at every step, and the famous volcano erupting with lava… Wait, what?

On a tour to the main temple of the island, a rather nosy tourist pushed a peculiar lever… and the spirits of the island have awakened! You will be trying to save your lives and the relics of this island by outrunning the lava — with the help of the spirits, if you’re lucky, or hindrance… if not so lucky.

When (and if) you get back home, the World Island Culture Organization will happily accept your miraculously saved relics and offer a handsome reward for your bravery. On your way to the mainland, a continental breakfast you had in the morning will not be enough. Make sure to stash some food for the journey, but don’t drop your guard: your companions can fall victim to the mischievous spirits of the island and push you right into the boiling lava! Oh boy!

GAMEPLAY1. Picking up dice — Simultaneously All dice are rolled, and each player must take any three of them — one at a time, with one hand only — as fast as they can. 2. Resolving your combination — Taking turns Each player resolves all effects of their combination: advancing along the corresponding tracks, purchasing cards, activating traps, and advancing lava!

GAME ENDIf you have 7 bananas, you may enter the rescue boat. When all players are either in the boat or out of the race, the survivor with the most relics wins.
