Trismegistus: Familiars — Prices

Ever had a pet that decides to wreak havoc exactly when you're in the middle of something important? Well, 19th-century alchemists dealt with the same struggle! Trismegistus: Familiars introduces these mischievous little companions into the mix. While they love to turn laboratories into disaster zones, these creatures can become invaluable allies if you know how to handle them. The secret? A few shiny objects and some patience to keep them calm.

Mechanically, this expansion adds Familiar tiles that enter the game at the end of the first and second rounds. These pets occupy specific sections and directly influence the Transmutations occurring in those areas. At first, they live up to their reputation as troublemakers, imposing disadvantages that can throw a wrench in your plans. It's a classic case of 'why is my pet doing this to me?'. However, by spending the specific resources they crave, you can tame them, turning those annoying penalties into powerful positive effects that can give you a significant edge over your opponents.

This expansion is a great fit for players who enjoy the base game and are looking for more strategic depth and risk management. You'll need to balance your transmutation progress with the cost of keeping your pets satisfied. It's all about turning a liability into a strategic asset. Get your lab ready, gather some bribes, and try to ensure your new furry (or scaly) friends help your alchemy instead of sabotaging it!
