Overview
A map of the Mediterranean features cities linked by lines. Move Ulysses' ship along these lines to four secret destinations to win the game. Players accept the lead player's choice of direction or object and challenge this destination. Alternative destinations are proposed and one winner will emerge. It is important to be the lead player, as this person has a choice of actions that no other players have.
