About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey board game fans! Ready to level up your Skulls of Sedlec game? The 'Executioners' expansion is here, a small pack of 6 cards that makes a big impact! If you love the base game and want more options, this is for you. This little gem introduces a new skull type: the Executioner, all about mischief and scoring. The idea is to use these Executioners to punish your opponents and rack up points by linking them to groups of Criminals. Who knew being an executioner in death could be so rewarding, right?

The coolest part is how easy it is to integrate this expansion. Just shuffle the 6 new cards into the main Skulls of Sedlec deck, and you're good to go! Play, score, have fun. And for those who like to mix things up, this expansion also increases the player count to up to 4 people, which is fantastic if you have more friends wanting to join the fun. Oh, and if you already have the solo expansion 'Monstrance,' don't worry: 'Executioners' is fully compatible with it too. So, whether you're playing solo, as a duo, trio, or quartet, this expansion brings more versatility and challenges.

The game keeps that quick and strategic feel of pattern building and set collection that we already know and love. It's perfect for those looking for a fast-paced experience with interesting tactical decisions. If you're already a fan of Skulls of Sedlec and want to add a new flavor, or if you're looking for a micro-game that can accommodate more players, this expansion is a gem. It doesn't radically change the game but adds layers of strategy and replayability without complicating the rules. Let's go execute the competition and fill that grave with points!
