Tips parks

General

• Remember that when only one player has 1 or more ​ left they must go to the end on their next moves, they cannot visit any additional spots.
• Use this to force a slow player to end the season.
• Photos ​ are a great way to turn extra resources into points. Remember they aren't counted in the score tracker until the end. Someone may seem way behind, but have a ton of photos plus bonuses and win at the end.
• Gear ​ that lets you take more ​ results in even more points.
• Use the campfire ​ to your advantage to visit key spots. You can only refresh your ​ using gear or with the start of a new season. Therefore the ​ is more valuable and rare than the first version game (in which it reset when one of your campers finished the trail).
• Drawing from the top of the ​ deck gives you something to aim for if you don't have the right payment when your first ​ is forced home. It may be better than reserving from the revealed cards if everyone is short of paying for those/if they don't help with bonuses. Or you may want to reserve a park that benefits your passion bonus. But remember that reserved parks give you nothing if you don't pay to visit them later.
• Buying gear and obtaining canteens is sacrificing for the future. They tend not to be fruitful in the last season, but by using them for 2 or 3 seasons they often will give large returns. But you have to focus on continual usage. Sometimes it may be strategic to block a leading player from visiting a site if it connects to gear, fills multiple canteens, or connects with their season/focus.
• Watch the season-specific bonuses, and each player's situation towards them. They can be the difference between a win and a loss in a close game.
