Thanks to player suggestions, this update introduces a small but meaningful change that improves the gameplay experience for everyone. Each encounter card has an icon in the top left corner that indicates what happens if scouting that encounter fails. Either there is no negative consequence, or the encounter card becomes inaccessible at that location, or, it might happen that the encounter automatically activates, which can be dangerous. Until now, these icons were only visible for encounters that have already been scouted. But with this update, these icons are always visible:
So, it's no longer a gamble to decide if there is a serious risk to scouting, or the worst that can happen is that you don't get more Clues or maybe miss out on an extra encounter option. However, if you already have a revealed encounter that looks acceptable, and you are facing an unscouted encounter that is probably hard to scout and is indicated to be dangerous, you might just keep playing it safe.
