About The Secret Valley, from BoardGameGeek:

The nomadic clans of the highlands were migrating together to new territories in search of the mysterious Secret Valley. After months of travel an explorer shouts the news: Fertile lands! The great valley stretched as far as the eye could see, and the long-awaited promise of prosperity was everywhere. In The Secret Valley, each player takes on the role of a clan venturing into mysterious new lands. In each round the players take possession of different territories in the valley represented on the cards, trying to be the player who best locates their settlements at the end of the game. Each territory card has a different scoring criteria that the player must fulfill as best as possible in the card grid that is formed at the table. At the end of each round (when the grid is completed) each player counts the points obtained for each card he put into play. Whoever gets the highest score after three rounds of play will be the winner of the game. Los clanes nómadas de las tierras altas estaban migrando juntos hacia nuevos territorios en busca del misterioso Valle Secreto. Luego de meses de viaje un explorador grita la noticia: Tierras fértiles! El gran valle se extendía hasta donde alcanzaba la vista y por todos lados se veía la tan ansiada promesa de prosperidad… En El Valle Secreto cada jugador toma el papel de un clan aventurándose en nuevas y misteriosas tierras. En cada ronda los jugadores irán tomando posesión de distintos territorios en el valle representados en las cartas intentando ser el jugador que mejor ubique sus asentamientos al final del juego. Cada carta de territorio tiene un criterio de puntuación diferente que el jugador debe cumplir lo mejor posible en la grilla de cartas que se forma en la mesa. Al final de cada ronda (cuando la grilla se completa) cada jugador contabiliza los puntos obtenidos por cada carta que puso en juego. Quien obtenga la mayor puntuación luego de tres rondas de juego será el ganador de la partida. -description from designer
