Description provided by Party Tails Games on YouTube:
Gather scrolls and bring them back to the house of wisdom to be translated with the second game in the South Tigris series - Scholars of the South Tigris from Garphill Games. Players will need to translate scrolls, increase their knowledge in science and math, influence the guilds, and retire their translators in order to earn victory points! We were big fans of Wayfarers of the South Tigris, so we backed this Kickstarter on Day 1 and have been looking forward to getting it to the table! We’ll show you all of the goodies inside of the box with our full board game unboxing video.

About Scholars of the South Tigris, from BoardGameGeek:
Scholars of the South Tigris is set during the height of the Abbasid Caliphate, circa 830 AD. The Caliph has called upon the keenest minds to acquire scientific manuscripts from all over the known world. Players will need to increase their influence in the House of Wisdom, and hire skilled linguists to translate the foreign scrolls into Arabic. In this Golden Age of wisdom and knowledge, be mindful not to neglect one in pursuit of the other.
The aim of Scholars of the South Tigris is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at the game's end. Points are gained by translating scrolls, increasing knowledge in various areas of science and mathematics, influencing the 3 guilds, and by retiring translators after their years of faithful service. The game end is triggered once all 4 caliph cards have been revealed.
