About the game

Players attempt to be the first to get both their explorers from start to finish around a track that circles a Mayan style pyramid. Players move their explorers by drawing and playing a card. Around the track are 6 little pyramids that the explorers may come to rest on. After they have moved a button is pushed and a mechanical buzzard circles the board randomly diving to scoop explorers off the path pyramids, and carry them off - back to the start.
