If you love Everdell, this Pearlbrook expansion adds so much depth to the base game. Introduces the Pearlbrook River area with a new board extension that seamlessly connects to your original Everdell setup. The new pearl resource lets you buy fancy Adornment cards or construct massive 3D wonders that look amazing on the table. Includes 14 new cards featuring aquatic critters like axolotls, platypi, and starlings - all with beautiful artwork that matches the original game's style. The collector's edition comes with upgraded components including glass pearl tokens instead of cardboard, and detailed punchboard wonders that really pop. Adds new strategies without complicating the core gameplay you already love. The pearl mechanics encourage different approaches to earning points, making replayability even better. Perfect for Everdell fans who want to expand their woodland city-building experience. Components are the same high quality as the base game, so everything fits together perfectly. Definitely worth it if you've played the original enough times to want some fresh challenges and cute new critters to discover.
