Description

Get ready to take your Illimat experience to the next level with the Crane Wife Expansion, designed by Keith Baker and Jennifer Ellis. Released in 2017, this expansion brings new excitement and challenges to the base game, suitable for 2 to 4 players. With easy-to-learn rules, you'll be able to dive right in and start exploring the new strategies and surprises that await. The expansion introduces new Luminaries and Okus tokens, inspired by The Crane Wife, which will add a fresh layer of depth to the game. You'll need to master hand management and set collection to come out on top, making for a fun and engaging experience. As you play, you'll encounter new elements like The Loom, which allows you to craft at a cost, and The Island, a place of isolation that will test your skills. The Boat will help you bridge the divide between distant fields, but beware of The Butchers, who can strike down a Luminary before you can claim it. With the ability to play in as little as 15 minutes or as long as 60, you can fit in a game whenever you want. The Crane Wife Expansion includes six new Luminaries, two Okus tokens, a cloth bag, and a booklet with variant rules, giving you everything you need to enhance your Illimat experience. Whether you're looking to pull off The Perfect Crime or outmaneuver your opponents, this expansion is sure to bring new excitement to the game.
