Darwin’s Journey Scoring: Museum, Exploration, Objectives & Letters
Darwin’s Journey awards points during play and adds multiple development tracks at the end of round five.

Exploration
Explorer position, reached locations and qualifying island objectives contribute to final scoring under the base rules.

Final resources and card effects
Apply any remaining base-game end conversions and printed final bonuses.
