About the game
If you're already a fan of the Obsession universe, grab your tea and adjust your monocle, because these promotional tiles are here to add some extra spice to your Victorian social life! This set isn't a standalone game, but rather a collection of twenty special tiles that originated from a brilliant community idea during the 'Upstairs, Downstairs' Kickstarter campaign. You know that feeling of wanting something fresh that fits perfectly with what you already love? That is exactly what these tiles deliver.

The pack offers a delightful variety of options to customize your gameplay. We're talking everything from Service tiles to keep your household running smoothly, to Prestige and Sporting tiles to show off your status in high society. The diversity is a major highlight: you'll find everything from staff enhancement options to more exotic additions, including a hybrid tile and a wildcard, providing that strategic flexibility every heavy gamer craves. Just imagine the fun of spotting comets in a garden observatory or launching a hot air balloon across your estate's lawn!

While two of these tiles were officially integrated into the main expansion after winning a popular community vote, the remaining eighteen now shine as a separate item. They span all the essential tile categories of the game, ensuring you can expand your scoring potential and interaction in a way that feels thematic and organic. This is the kind of content that doesn't just add mechanics; it plunges you even deeper into the elegance and complexities of the Victorian era. If you're looking for variety and want every session of Obsession to feel like a brand-new social adventure, these tiles are the perfect companion for your gaming table!
