In Zillertal you are a mountain photographer aiming to win contracts while travelling the beautiful villages of the Austrian Alps. Add to the ever-changing alpine landscape and complete tasks and contracts based on what can been seen on the landscape. On your turn, play a landscape card from their hand onto the shared, constantly-changing mountain landscape in the centre. Then try and complete one or more tasks from the contracts cards in your hand, based on what can be seen across the whole landscape. So if there are exactly 8 cows, you can complete a corresponding contract task. You can earn bonus abilities to give you new ways to complete contract tasks - add or hide features from the landscape, split the landscape with a gorge or add summit crosses to find new ways to score. The winner is the player who scores the most points from completed contracts once there are no more landscape cards to play. -description from designer
