About the game
If you already enjoy the surreal vibe of When I Dream, this bonus card pack is the extra spice needed to make your games even wilder. Essentially, we are talking about 5 new cards that bring bizarre and creative imagery to fuel everyone's imagination when describing dreams. You know that moment when you try to convince your team you saw something, but the image is so absurd that nobody believes you? That's exactly what these cards amplify.

The content is pure surrealism: we have everything from candle-lit lanterns with fairies and space-bunnies with floating strawberries, to even more unusual sights, like a vampire monkey at a tea party with Death, dancing scissors, and houses walking on robot legs. And it doesn't stop there; there are golden monkeys surrounded by dwarves, saddled fish flying over deserts, and even a ghost riding a motorcycle. It's the kind of material that forces players to search for adjectives they didn't even know existed.

A fundamental point for collectors or those playing in international groups: the cards have no text. This means they are completely language-independent. It doesn't matter if you speak Portuguese, English, or Klingon; the image is the only thing that matters. They serve as fuel for the base game's memory and storytelling mechanics, adding new layers of difficulty and fun. Some of these cards previously circulated as promos in specialized magazines like Spielbox and Tabletop Gaming, but now they can be integrated into your game to refresh the experience. If your group has already memorized the base game cards, this kit is the perfect solution to bring the element of surprise back to the table.
