In Faraway, you explore the mysterious continent of Alula, laying down a row of region cards that both set objectives for later cards and fulfil goals from earlier ones — all scored in reverse order at the end. Each turn you simultaneously play a card and draft a new one from the river, with a priority system rewarding clever timing. The explorer who accumulates the most fame from fulfilled regional objectives wins.
The continent Alula always has more surprises in store! Two ancient people come to meet you: the Guides and the Three-Eyed Ones. They both bring new ways of acquiring fame... By adding this expansion to the base game, you may even play Faraway with 7 players. This expansion features 5 Region cards with a new gray Biome, Mystical Havens (with a band of icons across the center), which were already present on 25 Sanctuary cards in the base game (and 4 Sanctuary cards in this expansion). One new Region card scores 4 VP per Mystical Haven card (and requires 2x of each resource icon as a prerequisite - 6 total).

The third mini expansion for Faraway scatters thirteen Spirit cards across the table as shared goals anyone can chase. The first explorer to meet a Spirit's condition tucks it under their latest Region, gaining fresh resources and extra scoring, so you end up watching your rivals as closely as your own journey.

Meteorite season is on Alula, and with it come meteor showers. This festive time attracts plenty of colourful visitors and excited pilgrims. Legends says these meteors change the physics of the continent in strange ways... The 15 new Meteor cards are just shuffled with Region cards from the base game (and possibly from the first expansion). They don't have an effect during the game, but can dramatically change the scoring phase: All Meteor cards in front of you stay face up for scoring (just like Sanctuaries), as well as all your Region cards which share a last digit with them. They will all be taken into account when scoring each of your Region cards. Meteor cards also features new scoring requirement, like series of 4 cards of the same biome, or throwing away one of your Sanctuary card.
