The Cook and Navigator characters bring with them new mechanisms and skills to add new challenges and ways to win the Treasure of Montecristo Island
The Cook has the ability to craft and give a hearty meal which may be consumed by any Adventurer — giving that Adventurer full Food, Water, and Health meters. If the Chapel or Monastery has an unlit altar, the Cook may light the fire for 2 wood and 1 coal even if they are not planning to craft a meal.
The Navigator has the ability to acquire new paths, after earning 4 compass tiles over the course of the game, and add them to the map. New paths are only accessible to the Adventurers — the Thief does not have access to these new paths. The Navigator must be at the space they are placing the new path.
The Treasure of Montecristo Island base game is required for play. The game is for 2-6 players aged 10+, with a game run time of 60-120 minutes and can be played along with The Thief and the Purple Sapphire expansion pack.
