Its main hook is the deck‑building feature of the base game: you can shuffle "non‑essential" cards from the core set together with the new expansion cards, creating fresh combos and interactions. In addition to expanding the card pool, the expansion introduces new scoring objectives that open alternative win paths, and extra ways to manipulate the deck order, giving the player tighter control over the game flow. As in Galdor's Grip, everything happens in your hands—you move through the deck, flip cards, manage your hand, and try to dodge hazards until Galdor can neutralize the villain Feragot. The game is compact (30‑45 minutes), perfect for fans of solo fantasy challenges who enjoy tinkering with deck builds. Note that the base game is required; the expansion cards cannot be played alone. The artwork is AI‑generated, offering a quirky visual style. If you already love Galdor's Grip, this expansion is a cheap, quick way to deepen the experience; if not, start with the core set before diving into expansions. ## FAQ ### How many players can use the expansion?
