Sunda to Sahul

Build an island archipelago piece by piece as people migrate through the Indonesian islands toward New Guinea and Australia. Select laser-cut wooden tiles and join them to extend the islands, creating a different map each game. Place clan tokens on nodes where tile corners meet, claiming them when placing the final adjoining tile. Completing an island doubles the value of its tokens, encouraging cooperation while players compete for control. Play as a simultaneous race or in turns, with optional rules for fresh water, tribes, challenges, and resources.
