This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

Exploration is an adventure themed board game designed by James C. Spiring and originally published by Spiring Enterprises Ltd in 1967^[1], and subsequently produced and marketed by Waddingtons of Leeds, United Kingdom from 1970.^[2]

The game consists of two phases (preparation and expedition), where the players first gain personnel and equipment for their adventures, and then traverse either land or sea seeking objectives and treasures, before returning to base in order to complete, and be rewarded for, their exploration. Finishing first does not necessarily result in victory, as it is the player amassing the most money that wins the game.
