El Faro ("The Lighthouse") is a card-driven action-programming game where you must be the first to guide your small fleet of ships to the central island of the board. To do this, you will manage the cards in your hand to advance your ships while overcoming obstacles that appear along the way. Finally, the lighthouse's beam will rotate, favoring (or hindering) your actions accordingly.
