Set in the Age of Discovery, Journey of Greed sends four adventurers along a route through lost islands in search of treasure. Each island can bring rewards or danger, and the group must decide how far to press on.
Players use cards to affect the adventure and one another, with options that include setting traps, stealing, and attacking. They can cooperate for a time or turn on their fellow adventurers as the risks rise.
The central gamble is whether to continue toward greater potential rewards or escape with the treasure already collected. Reviews also describe choosing characters with distinct abilities and building a deck of action cards.
Some supplied reviews enjoy the blend of board-game risk, card strategy, and multiplayer bluffing, especially the choice between leaving with treasure and pressing farther. Others appreciate the online matches and replay possibilities from changing cards and players. Criticism focuses on a cluttered interface, combat-heavy play, and a timer that can leave little time to plan; individual reviewers also mention weak bots and service availability concerns.
