Unconscious Mind: Free Association is the expansion that will turbocharge your base game experience. With five mix‑and‑match modules, you get 6 Illusion Dream cards, 5 Mirror Client cards, 12 Scholarly Research cards, 6 Rendezvous Objective cards, and 6 Bric‑à‑brac Notebook tiles. Each module brings new strategic possibilities, letting you blend and combine cards in ways you never imagined. The game keeps its subconscious‑exploring vibe, but now you have more tools to plan, negotiate, and collect. Contracts and tags keep you focused on goals, while programmed movement and the rondel add tension and require pre‑planning. If you loved the base, this expansion is the perfect extension to prolong the fun and test new tactics. Ideal for 1‑4 players, 60‑120 minutes, with a complexity from medium to high but still accessible for those who enjoy strategic challenges. Grab your notebook, pick your contracts, and dive into fresh free associations!
