About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey gamers! If you're already into the adventures of Lost Ruins of Arnak and want to add an extra spice to your explorations, this promo card is for you! Originally released via Game Boy Geek's Kickstarter campaign in 2021, this little gem adds a powerful ability that can change the course of the game. Think of it this way: you get a special once-per-game effect that lets you use the silver side of any of your available assistant tiles on the board. This opens up a range of new strategies, allowing for unexpected combos or resolving resource bottlenecks right when you need them most. The card itself has very little text, which makes it super easy to play with, without having to stop and read a bunch of rules. It's the kind of addition that doesn't complicate things but adds a masterstroke touch to your games. Perfect for those who like to optimize every move and seek that little edge that makes all the difference. If you're a fan of Arnak and enjoy having access to these novelties that make the game even more dynamic and strategic, this card is a find. It fits perfectly with the deck/bag building, worker placement, and tile placement mechanics that already make Arnak so addictive. Get ready to explore new ruins with this card up your sleeve!
