If you’re like me, you really like Splendor.
If you’re too much like me, you are also very bad at actually winning Splendor, but that doesn’t seem to be the case with most people I have played with/taught this game to.
If this is the case, I think you might be very excited to learn that the expansion, Cities of Splendor, is now available!!!
What’s in the box?
This box adds FOUR separate expansions to the game. Each of these modules can only be played with the base game one at a time, so there is no crazy extra-rules overload. They are all designed to be very distinct experiences and after reading the rules for each one I am already becoming exceptionally sweaty, and it isn’t just the heatwave.
How about the Cities that replace the regular nobles and become a REQUIREMENT TO WIN. Or the Strongholds, which you can smack down onto the board to not only block your opponents plans but speed up your own progress. I look forward to finding new ways to lose consistently at this game but I hold onto hope that maybe, just maybe one of these modules will be my time to shine…
Let me know if you’d like me to reserve copies for you. With both a long weekend coming up and a perfect excuse to spend a little longer in air conditioning, coupled with the popularity of the base game, these will go quickly.
Time to get them here at Presents of Mind.
