Serpentine is a small card-drafting, tile-laying game where you will play as an Explorer-Planner of the town of Serpentine, Western Australia.

It uses a serpentine (or snake) drafting system where players will draft cards and play them onto a growing map.

Each player will have a terrain type (town, farm or mountain) and line type (road, railway or river). At the end of the game, score your largest area and line. Highest combined score wins.
