The module can be played on its own, with the base game, or alongside the other two expansions, giving you the freedom to mix and match the content. Its main addition is four production building tiles that can replace the neutral landscape tiles when a player selects the red plan action. Then, when using the green build action, the player places the building on an island and receives one of five special production tokens, which go straight onto their player board. These tokens score exactly like regular production tokens, expanding the ways you can generate resources. The set keeps Amerigo's core mechanics – action points, grid movement, modular board, and tile placement – but adds more variety in production choices, prompting tactical decisions about where to invest your buildings. Playtime hovers around 75 minutes, perfect for 2‑4 players already familiar with the base game and looking for an extra strategic layer without overwhelming complexity. The expansion carries a light weight (2.77/5) and holds an average BGG rating of 7.3, showing the community views it as a solid addition for those who want more production diversity while preserving the original feel. ## FAQ ### How many players can use the expansion?
