Swamped

Players share a small boat as they navigate a dangerous swamp in search of a rare herb that can cure disease. Each turn, a player steers the boat, choosing whether to pursue the group’s main objective or divert the expedition toward valuable treasures. The game combines a shared objective with secret personal goals that may send the expedition into peril. Players control the pace by moving quickly or exploring longer, while new swamp cards expand the playing area and advance the game timer. The winner is determined after the secret objectives are revealed at the end.
