About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're already a fan of Peloponnes Card Game and feel that Ancient Greece could be even more intense, the Patronus expansion is your mandatory next step. This isn't just about adding more people to the table, though that is one of its biggest strengths. With Patronus, the game gains a new layer of strategy through the introduction of special 'Patronus' cards. These cards act as shields, offering that extra layer of protection that can be the deciding factor between a civilization's success or total collapse against rivals. In addition to expanding the player count, the expansion adds an entire extra round to the game flow, meaning you'll have more time to plan your moves, manage your hand, and win the most contested auctions. It's the kind of upgrade that doesn't just increase playtime, but deepens the tension of every decision. If you enjoy card games that blend resource management with fierce competition for power and influence, this expansion is the seasoning needed to make your Peloponnes sessions even more epic and unpredictable. Get your bids and your patrons ready, because the struggle for control of the region is about to get much more intense!
