FAQ
Official FAQ
- At the start of the game, place your Journey token (the one with the boot) face up.
- When you play this, you get +1 Buy, and turn the token over.
- Then if it is face down, nothing more happens.
- If it is face up, you draw 5 cards.
- So, every other time you play a Ranger, you will draw 5 cards.
- It does not matter what turned over the Journey token; you could turn it face down with Giant, then face up with Ranger.

Secret History
One of the simple things to do with a token was just to use it to make something work at a different speed. With the easiest speed being half speed. Originally this only gave +1 Buy when you got the token face up, but it got the +Buy full time to be slightly simpler, and costs instead of the original because now it doesn't compare poorly to Smithy.
