Description
Floodlands is a roll and write where players draw land and water onto a map, as well as buildings and resources. Each turn players roll three dice. One tells them how much land and water they are drawing, while the total of the other two tell them what buildings or resources they can draw.
Once each players map is full scoring is done, and the player with the highest score is the rewarded cartographer.
