Atlas is a tableau-building game in which you take the role of a backpacker with a unique ability, personality, and language. After saving for the journey of a lifetime, you set out to explore the world while carefully managing your money and energy.

Featuring 235 countries and 865 unique destinations, Atlas creates a different travel experience every time you play. Along the way, players also discover interesting real-world facts about the locations they visit.

As you explore destinations, you gain experience icons. At the end of the game, these experiences award points based on their popularity, which players can influence throughout the game.

You can develop your traveler by learning new languages, making new friends, completing personal goals, and competing with other players for Public Goals. Additional opportunities for scoring come from collecting souvenirs and creating popular Blog Posts.

Every action involves meaningful decisions. By pursuing experiences that match your interests, you can unlock bonus actions and create new opportunities to earn even more points.

The game ends when a player places their final explorer token. The player with the most points wins.
