How to play the Board Game Encyclopedia

In this board game, you get to travel the world and research foreign animals and hopefully be able to publish your research and contribute to the Encyclopedia! But to be able to do this you will need to gather experts, get funds and also figure out what animal you would like to know more about!

This is a beautiful, dice placement board game where you portray as a naturalist and adventurer that has been hired by Comte de Buffon - Darwin's predecessor - to help him create the first encyclopedia of natural history.

In this video, I will show you how to set up the board game Encyclopedia but also how to play it!

You managed to explain the rules very well. Thank you for taking the time and make such a great tutorial.

This looks right up my alley as a nice medium-light dice placement euro. The Castles of Burgundy is my favorite game, so I’m hoping this one is different enough to have replay value for me.

I wish you and your family a merry Christmas ❤️🎅.

Just fyi, your cc should have a correction regarding the expedition value of the dice value of 4 + 2 coins, the player shouldn't be able to complete the action at 7 Expedition as the total is 6 unless they had spent an additional coin or the dice is valued at 5. @JendersGaming
