About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey folks! If you're already a fan of Mosaic and want to add some extra spice to your civilization-building, the Promo Pack 1 is here! This little gem was handed out at Gen Con 2022 to those who snagged the Colossus edition, and later appeared on the Game Boy Geek Kickstarter. It's a pack of 5 new cards that bring some cool ideas to expand the base game, especially with the upcoming 'Wars and Disasters' expansion.
These cards introduce more options and strategies, incorporating mechanics that blend well with the main game's flow, such as hand management and area influence. Each card is marked with a star in the top right corner, so you know it's a special item. It's the kind of thing that makes you want to return to the table and try out new moves, you know? If you're the type who collects everything Mosaic or wants a bit more variety in your games, this pack is for you. It doesn't radically change the game, but it adds that little touch that makes a difference for those who already master the rules and seek more depth. Think of it as a tasty appetizer before the main course of the larger expansion!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Is this pack a full expansion or just a few extra cards?
It's a small promotional pack with 5 cards that add options to the base game of Mosaic, not a complete expansion.
Do I need the 'Wars and Disasters' expansion to use these cards?
Not necessarily. The cards are marked as promos and were released before the main expansion, but they complement the base game and can be used with or without it.
How many players does this pack support?
The pack itself doesn't change the player count. It adds cards that can be used in the 1-6 player games of the base Mosaic.
Where can I get these cards?
Originally distributed at Gen Con 2022 and later available through a Kickstarter. They might be hard to find outside of those channels.
Are the cards very different from the base game cards?
They introduce new mechanics and synergies while maintaining the spirit of Mosaic, offering an extra touch of variety and strategy.
What is the impact of these cards on the game's complexity?
The impact is minimal. They are just 5 cards that add more options without overwhelming the core gameplay experience.
Is it worth buying if I only play occasionally?
If you really enjoy Mosaic and want to own all the pieces, it might be worth it. But if you're looking for major new content, it might be better to wait for larger expansions.
