Confusing Lands is a card game for 2 players in which each player creates their own wacky floating landscape! Get ready to discover majestic mountains, trace flowing rivers, and encounter the occasional cute little deer! Players take turns playing cards containing various symbols and scoring conditions. Once both players have played 8 cards, they each tally points based on a single shared scoring condition as well as the other scoring conditions present in their finished landscapes. The winner is the player that created the best confusing landscape! Which is to say... the player with the most points at the end of the game! -description from the designer
