Spiralburst Studio is developing the app for The Guild of Merchant Explorers, the beautiful strategy board game designed by Matthew Dunstan and Brett J. Gilbert!

The app will include the 4 maps from the board game, the solo mode, and an interactive tutorial. The maps from The Queen's Special Order expansion will be added later on.

The Guild of Merchant Explorers is played on a hexagonal grid with varying terrain spaces. Explore cards are revealed each round indicating playable terrain, and players simultaneously expand their exploration networks accordingly.

Players aim to create villages, complete trade routes, and fulfill objectives, but strategies diverge as players gain unique Investigate cards with special exploration abilities!

The game's 4 beautiful fantasy maps are illustrated by Gerralt Landman, and each has its own quirks and challenges.

TGOME was one of 3 nominees for the prestigious Kennerspiel des Jahres award in 2024. This award recognizes excellent games that are elegantly designed and strategically deep.

On Board Game Geek, The Guild of Merchant Explorers sits in the Top 250 Strategy board games.
