Le Grand Voyage

Players each take the role of a migratory bird species and guide their population from Europe to Africa. Each species has a different destination and asymmetric abilities that affect flight strategy. Play proceeds in simultaneous rounds as players send out scout counters to make a series of flights, resolve encounters with perils along the route, and decide when to land to secure progress for their species. The game uses push‑your‑luck decisions: scouts can advance to gain distance but risk succumbing to hazards. Victory goes to the species that advances its population farthest and reaches its destination first.
