1845 - THE LAST FRONTIER
THROUGH ICE AND SNOW
The Arctic expedition where you write history
The silence of the Pole is broken only by the creaking of the hull under the grip of the cold, while the white horizon hides dangers and wonders.
It is an exploration and resource management board game that puts you in command of a courageous 19th-century scientific expedition in a desperate attempt to find the Northwest Passage.
This isn't your typical warehouse management, but a race against time on a living map that literally changes before your eyes as the ice expands and recedes.
It's the game for those who love to plan every move while feeling the weight of the cold and the glory of historical discovery.
