About the game
What you do in a play session
If you are a fan of Stone Age and feel like you know every hut by heart, the The New Huts expansion is the extra spice your table has been missing. Originally released in an issue of Spielbox magazine, this small addition brings six new hut cards that shuffle into the base deck, ensuring every game has a touch of unpredictability. The mechanics are simple: the new cards are mixed with the originals, and depending on the player count, some are randomly removed. This means not every new card will appear in every session, keeping the element of surprise alive. Among the new buildings, we have huts that grant recurring resources like wood, brick, or stone, which can completely shift your long-term planning. There are also very interesting cards like the Kindergarten, which grants an extra worker, the Workshop, which provides an additional tool, and the Greenhouse, which boosts your food track progression. It is a light expansion that does not change the core rules but offers more strategic options for those looking to optimize their score. If you love Stone Age, these huts provide a pleasant variety in dynamics without complicating things for anyone. It is the type of content that, once mixed into the game, you will not want to remove, as the new scoring strategies and resource bonuses bring a necessary freshness to a classic we have played hundreds of times. Keep in mind that this content is also included in the larger expansion, Stone Age: The Expansion, so check if you already own that material before hunting down the old magazine!
