Description

The world of Path of Light and Shadow has just gotten a whole lot bigger with the Solstice expansion, released in 2022. Designed by Travis R. Chance and Nick Little, this expansion throws players into the forgotten shores of the Hinterlands, where ancient ruins and powerful relics await. The feud of the deposed heirs to the throne has spilled out across the sea, and now it's up to you to explore the megalith ruins, utilize magical relics, and command new forces to gain the upper hand. With new player cards for existing factions and a new Region deck, you'll have plenty of opportunities to build your influence and outmaneuver your opponents. Whether you're playing solo or with up to three friends, Solstice offers a thrilling experience that's full of depth and complexity. The game's normal complexity level makes it easy for experienced board game players to jump right in, and the variety of game mechanics - including area majority, deck building, and dice rolling - ensures that no two games are ever the same. With the ability to build your own tech trees and manage your hand, you'll need to balance cruelty and mercy to achieve powerful effects. The Solstice expansion is the perfect addition to the base game, offering hours of new gameplay and excitement, and with a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, you can expect a fully immersive experience.
