If you're already a die-hard fan of the Bruges series, get ready to spice up your strategy with Brügge: Die Haustiere! This isn't just any expansion you can play on its own; it's a mini-expansion specifically designed to boost the base game. The goal here is to introduce a fun element and an extra layer of management to your city. What's inside the box? You'll find 17 pet cards (yes, adorable animals!) that bring a fresh dynamic to the table, plus 5 majority markers—one for each player color—to help track who's leading the pack. It's the kind of compact content that makes a huge difference in the gaming experience, adding variety without overcomplicating the core mechanics. If you enjoy economic management games with a touch of charm and want to see how small details can shift the course of a game, this expansion is your next essential step. It's quick to learn, easy to integrate, and ensures every Bruges session feels fresh. Just a heads-up: you'll definitely need the base game to let these pets roam free!
