About the game

What you do in a play session

Quebec: Hitchcock à Québec is a promotional expansion first released at Spiel 2011, adding a touch of the master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock to the base game. With area majority, modular board, and worker placement mechanics, this event card introduces a unique strategic layer. When revealed, it replaces the normal cultural leader with one inspired by Hitchcock, allowing you to score points immediately in a zone of power of your choice. Each worker in the zone grants 1 victory point, with no cascade effects—perfect for those who enjoy careful planning and thematic twists. A flavorful addition for fans of the base game who want a bit more drama and strategy.
