The game

Already own Arnak? Expedition Leaders is the expansion that changes every game. The others are a campaign, a bigger board and a storage box that hides an expansion inside.

1-4 players. Every expansion needs the base game. The Missing Expedition is a solo/co-op campaign for 1-2.

The Adventure Chest is storage plus one expansion. It holds the base game and expansions and includes Twisted Paths, but not Leaders or The Missing Expedition. Do not buy it expecting three expansions.

The Missing Expedition wants 1-2 players. A six-chapter campaign. It adds two leaders if you also own Expedition Leaders, but it plays without it.
