## Description
The night has barely begun, and more guests are already knocking on your inn's door! If you thought Ugly Gryphon Inn was already bustling, get ready, because the 'More Patrons' expansion brings a new wave of guests, and they're even pickier. These new cards shuffle into the starting deck, increasing the challenge of accommodating everyone.

The goal remains the same: keep everyone happy and with a roof over their heads. But now, to consider the night a success, you need one more contented patron than in the base game. This means every decision counts even more. Managing resources and hand cards becomes crucial, as these new customers can complicate your day (or rather, your night).

This expansion is perfect for those who already enjoy the original solo game and want to add an extra spice to the experience. It subtly but effectively raises the difficulty, forcing you to think about new strategies to handle everyone. If you like quick solo card games that challenge you to optimize every move, this expansion is a perfect fit. It's like having a new shift at the inn, but with customers who test you to your limits. Prepare your best smile (and your best cards) because the night promises to be long!
