Alhambra: The Thief's Turn

Hey there, board game enthusiasts! Ready to spice up your Alhambra experience? The "The Thief's Turn" expansion (literally, The Hour of the Thieves) packs four distinct modules you can mix and match to your heart's content, just like a rule-bending culinary master! First up, the "Change" module introduces coins. You know how when you overpay for a building, you get change back? Now, those coins are actual currency you can use. Speaking of currency, the "Thieves" module lets you snag thief cards at the start. These little rascals allow you to grab available money cards out of turn – pretty neat, huh? But don't get too cocky! If you're into sprucing up your city's aesthetics, the "Walls" module lets you build wooden walls. Use them to extend your Alhambra or fill in those pesky gaps. Just make sure you find the right wall card in the money deck. Last but not least, the "Traveling Merchant" module populates your buildings with meeples! These new residents offer bonus points during scoring, but they require some clever planning with your city layout using merchant tiles. It's the perfect expansion for those who've mastered the base game and want to add more strategic depth and options.
