Paris: l'Étoile — Prices

You know that feeling of having conquered everything and now needing a new challenge? That's exactly what happens in Paris: l'Étoile. A few years have passed since you dominated the French capital's real estate market, but don't think things have gotten easier. Now, shrewd foreign investors have arrived with a hunger for power, eager to take a slice of the Parisian pie. And where are they focusing? On the most coveted spot of all: the Place de l’Étoile, with the iconic Arc de Triomphe overlooking the Champs-Élysées.

This expansion isn't just about aesthetics; it shakes up the base game's dynamics. The highlight is the new collection of bonus tiles, which bring much more variety and ensure that no two games feel the same. But the real icing on the cake is the strategy tiles. These grant each player a unique power, fundamentally changing how you plan your moves. And if you feel your current power isn't working? There's a way out: if you manage to place one of your keys on the Arc de Triomphe, you can swap your ability and adapt your strategy on the fly.

If you already enjoy the area control and economic management of the original game, l'Étoile adds that layer of depth that transforms the experience. It's your chance to use your veteran experience to block the foreign newcomers and reaffirm who really runs the City of Light. Get your keys ready, plan your investments, and prepare for the battle for the center of the world.
