This week's game is Darwin's Journey, this time with the new Oceania expansion. Here is a brief description of the game from BGG:

Darwin's Journey is a worker-placement Eurogame in which players recall Charles Darwin's memories of his adventure through the Galapagos islands, which contributed to the development of his theory of evolution. With the game's innovative worker progression system, each worker will have to study the disciplines that are a prerequisite to perform several actions in the game, such as exploration, correspondence, gathering, and dispatch of repertoires found on the island to museums in order to contribute to the human knowledge of biology. The game lasts five rounds, and thanks to several short- and long-term objectives, every action you take will grant victory points in different ways.

Please come prepared to play, as there will not be time for a full teach, although we will go over the Oceania tweaks before we begin. The rules and several tutorial videos can be found on BGG:
