Hey board game fans! If you're already into the classic Alhambra and want to add some extra spice to your games, The Vizier's Favor is the right choice. This gem isn't just one expansion, but a package with four modules you can mix and match as you please, adding that extra layer of strategy without overcomplicating things. We've got the main module, 'The Vizier's Favor,' which lets you buy a building at any time, but watch out for the catch: you have to pay the exact amount! Then, 'The Builders Huts' introduces new tiles that only score points if you build neighbors of the same color, requiring more precise planning. And for those who like to mix things up, 'The Currency Exchange' allows you to use different types of currency to buy your buildings, giving your game economy a breather. Finally, the bonus cards give you extra points if you have the corresponding building type in your Alhambra. It's a chance to refresh the game you already love, adding new tactics and twists. Perfect for those who want more Alhambra, but with a touch of novelty and flexibility.
