About the game
Get ready for a trip through time with Aeon's End: Past and Future! This souped-up expansion for the already acclaimed Aeon's End throws you into two epic, interconnected campaigns: one exploring the past and another diving into a distant future. The coolest part? You can choose whichever order you want to play them in – who doesn't love that kind of freedom, right? This box packs a punch with tons of new goodies to spice up your games: 10 brand-new mages for you to master, 6 new and fearsome enemies (the Nemeses!) to test your strategies, 18 market cards to boost your decks, and 15 Stop Decks. Oh, and for those who love diving into the lore, there are 2 narrative booklets and 10 envelopes holding secrets and challenges. If you're already a fan of Aeon's End and craving more content, this expansion is a feast. It adds depth with its campaigns and introduces fresh character options and challenges. But heads up: to embark on these expeditions, you'll need a copy of either Aeon's End: New Age or Aeon's End: Outcasts. So, if you own one of those, prepare to relive the past and shape the future in epic battles!
