## Description
Hippocrates: Agora brings the bustling Agora to your base game, expanding the medical experience in Ancient Greece.

This expansion comes with four modules that you can mix and match as you please, adding extra flavor to your games. The 'Leaders' module encourages you to match doctors and patients from the same region for bonus points. 'The Nurses' module introduces new helpers that optimize your doctors' work, making healing more efficient. Want more advantages? 'Benefactors and Nobles' offers permanent benefits or end-game points, but of course, everything comes at a cost. And for those who enjoy an extra challenge, the 'Events' module adds twists with rewards for the proactive and calamities for the unlucky. Get ready to navigate the Agora and prove you are the worthy successor to Hippocrates!
