About the game

The Great Ocean spans the entire known world, and the Myriads Archipelago is in the middle of its expanse. You are a young Captain, in charge of a small fleet, and you are traveling the seas to find a few hospitable islands where your people can happily settle and prosper in peace. In fact, a well-known, ancient prophecy speaks of 5 blessed isles, which are waiting for you to find them, to set up a new realm. So your mind is made up: You won’t ease the helm until you have discovered them! On each of your turns, you must use your Fleet tiles to create an island containing the resources required by one of the Prophecy cards. The first player to form 5 islands, and thus obtain 5 cards wins the game and becomes the new ruler of the Myriads. —description from the publisher
