Perfect for fans who want a dash of geeky meta-humor in their games.

## FAQ
### Do I need the base game to play?
Yes, it's an expansion requiring Suburbia (or Suburbia 5★ to use the stars).

### How many players does it support?
1-4, same as the base game — the tiles don't change player limits.

### Is it worth it if I don't attend cons?
Still! The tiles have fun mechanical effects, but the thematic appeal is stronger for con-goers.

### Where can I find these tiles now?
Tricky! They were 2015 promos, but might pop up in secondhand markets or collector groups.

### Does it drastically change the base game?
Not really — just 5 extra tiles with situational effects, mostly adding thematic flavor.
