About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey folks! If you've already ventured through the lands of Scythe and enjoy adding that extra spice to your games, check this out: the Promo Pack #1 brings four brand-new Encounter cards (numbers 29 through 32). For those who backed the Kickstarter, these goodies were already included, but if you only have the retail version, they were left out.

These cards are those little surprises that pop up when you decide to explore an unknown territory. They introduce random events, challenges, or opportunities that can alter the course of your game, adding another layer of unpredictability and fun to the already rich Scythe universe. Think of them as small bonuses that might give you a little boost or test you a bit further. It's nothing game-breaking, but they certainly add a special touch for those looking to vary their experiences a bit. It's the kind of thing that makes us want to collect everything, right? If you're a fan of card play and keeping your Scythe collection up-to-date with all the latest additions, it's worth keeping an eye on these extras. They are small, but they bring extra charm for those who already master the board and seek new ways to interact with the world created by Stonemaier Games.
