About the game
Wild. Remote. Dice-powered. Head north to one of the most rugged corners of North America. This expansion adds a striking Alaska & Yukon board extension with harder-to-reach locations and breathtaking wild zones. In these wild zones, you'll roll custom wildlife dice to collect animal, foreground, and background icons. Spend these icons to claim transparent cards featuring northern wildlife and landscapes, then layer them into unique photo compositions that score big and create unforgettable moments in your photo journal. —description from the publisher
