In 1845, Sir John Franklin led an expedition on behalf of the British Royal Navy to find and explore the last portion of the Northwest Passage, regardless of the cost. The Royal Navy gave Franklin two heavy Ships (HMS Terror and HMS Erebus) filled with scientific equipment, 1000 books, a crew of 128 men, and enough food to last for three years. They left England in May and encountered whalers along the west coast of Greenland in August. There, they waited for more favorable weather conditions for the crossing of the Lancaster Sound. Once the weather improved, they sailed into unknown waters, and no one ever heard from them again...

Their disappearance provoked a great deal of turmoil in public opinion, and numerous British and American expeditions attempted to find their trail. As leaders of these expeditions in Expedition: Northwest Passage, players must venture into these hazardous Arctic waters in order to discover Franklin's fate and succeed where he failed - by finding the Northwest Passage. Players allocate their crewmen in their ship or in their sled to perform various actions such as exploring, moving, or gathering clues on the whereabouts of the Franklin expedition. As the game progresses, the seasons will pass and parts of the sea will be frozen, blocking the way for the ships. Players acquire victory points by gathering clues, mapping the area, and - of course - discovering the Northwest Passage. However, in order to claim victory, one has to come back home to the Greenland on time!

In Perfect Shot, you'll have to take pictures of animals to win the most victory points. On your turn, you take either take an Album card or you can place a Landscape punched card from your hand onto the previous Landscape card in the game shoe. If any animal appears partially or entirely in the camera lenses of your Landscape card, you can take the corresponding Animal Photo tile(s) and put them in one of your photo Albums while respecting the constraints of the Albums- only snow animals, for example. A complete Album allows you to earn even more victory points so you have to organize your photos well.

And if an animal fits completely in your lense, it's a Perfect Shot and one more step to victory! As for the Yeti, it is so fierce, wild and mysterious that you can only see half of it in the photos you take. It will take two different halves to prove to the world its existence... and gain more and more victory points.

After the game, the island will change for the next time those children lose themselves- and you know it will happen again!

After choosing your character and learning about your special abilities in Pan's Island, each player is responsible for hiding a pirate and a Lost Child. Thanks to a hand of clue cards representing dreams made by the characters, each player can give clues on the location of the Lost Children or the pirates to avoid. These clue cards are played on another player's board by placing them on a "scale of relevance" ranging from "Exactly" to "Not at all". The player then needs to correctly interpret the clue to move around and search for the Lost Children in the correct area. The game is won when five Lost Children have been found, but it ends if you encounter the pirates more than twice. At the end of a game and depending on your success, event cards will change the topology of the island, bring in new rules, and determine how you pursue your adventure. If you've lost, the island may become easier to explore or make you more powerful, but if you've won, new obstacles appearing on the island will make your new adventures a bit more difficult quest.
