Description
Imperial Settlers: Why Can't We Be Friends is an exciting expansion to the popular board game Imperial Settlers, designed by Ignacy Trzewiczek. Released in 2014, this expansion adds a fresh layer of depth to the game, introducing new common cards for the central deck and faction-specific cards that breathe new life into the four base game factions. With its normal complexity level, fans of board games will have no trouble diving in and exploring the new mechanics, including hand management, card drafting, and variable player powers. As you play with 1 to 4 players, you'll discover new effects like "open production", which allows opponents to visit your buildings and collect resources, while also giving you a worker to use again. This adds a fun social dynamic to the game, as you'll need to navigate these interactions and make the most of the workers and resources at your disposal. With playtime ranging from 45 to 90 minutes, Imperial Settlers: Why Can't We Be Friends is a great way to mix up your gameplay experience and try out new strategies, whether you're playing solo or with friends. The extensive use of text may require some conversion effort to make it playable, but for fans of the series, it's well worth the effort to explore this new expansion and see what it has to offer.
