Spirit Island: Jagged Earth

Spirit Island: Jagged Earth

Expansion

2020·R. Eric Reuss

1 - 6 players
90 - 120 min
Very heavy weight: Rules-dense, long sessions

From BoardGameGeek

The battle against the colonizing invaders rages on! Known Spirits adopt different Aspects to battle the Invaders, and new Spirits join the fray. Some transform the island, making it hazardous and deadly to all humanity, while others work with the Dahan to fight back in other ways. Hard choices confront the Spirits, and even Stone's Unyielding Defiance must weigh trade-offs. Jagged Earth is an expansion for the base game of Spirit Island. No other expansions are required to use it, though it is best balanced when combined with the Branch & Claw expansion.
