Game play for Lost Cities is brilliant. Players attempt to lay down cards that match whichever expeditions they choose in sequential order. The catch is once you've laid down a number, you can't lay down a lower number. There are different rewards and penalties for how many cards you lay down per expedition.
This is a game where you have to try it to fully understand the excitement and strategy that exists in Lost Cities. There is, like all games, a level of luck-of-the-draw but there are things you can do to gain an advantage. A fun, simple and easily transportable game. Only downside is only two people can play.

I went into this thinking it wasn't going to be very fun but man was I wrong. The scoring can be a bit tricky the first couple times but once you catch on what you need to do to get the most points the game play is strategic and suspenseful. Would recommend!
