About the game
What you do in a play session
If you've already ventured into the dark world of Folklore: The Affliction, this expansion is like finding a hidden treasure chest. The Folklore: The Affliction – Crafting & Recipes Card Pack adds 52 cards that introduce a new crafting and recipe generation system to the base game. Imagine being able to create powerful potions, legendary weapons, or even deadly traps to face the creatures of darkness. It's that extra spice your campaign was missing, adding more depth and strategic options. But beware: since the base game already has a certain level of complexity, this expansion might be a bit intimidating for beginners. If you're the type who loves diving deep into detailed mechanics and customization, you'll adore every card in this pack.
