Description
Rattus: Africanus is an exciting expansion to the original Rattus game, introducing new strategic possibilities that will keep you on your toes. With the addition of a caravan and diplomats, players have even more ways to outmaneuver their opponents and gain the upper hand. The introduction of region cards also gives players more control over the game, allowing them to influence the spread of the Black Death and protect their own territories. This expansion takes the core game to a whole new level, making it feel fresh and exciting even for seasoned players. One of the best things about Rattus: Africanus is that it allows for up to six players to join in on the fun, making it a great option for larger game nights. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, it's easy to fit in a game or two, and the easy-to-learn rules mean that new players can jump right in. Designed by Henrik Berg and Åse Berg, this 2011 expansion is a must-have for fans of the original game, and its medieval theme and area majority/influence mechanics make it a compelling choice for anyone who loves strategic gameplay. Whether you're a longtime fan of Rattus or just looking for a new game to try, Rattus: Africanus is definitely worth checking out.
