Protect Your Home In New Spirit Island Expansion

October 18, 2018 by cassn

The blight of humanity has once again come to the shores of spirit island, and so the ethereal elements of chaos and destruction must rise to defend their home from this new mortal threat.

Spirit Island: Jagged Earth is the second expansion to Spirit Island, and fans of the base game are right to be excited. Funded in under fourteen minutes, this Kickstarter is full of new cards, boards, and, of course, spirits, to improve and expand the original game.

The new expansion includes:

Eight new spirits
Aspect cards to improve powers for base game spirits
New badlands tokens
Two new adversaries
New scenarios
new fear and blight cards
Fifty new power cards
Thirty new event cards
Two new island boards

...which adds a whole bunch of new aspects to this game.

The new aspect cards are of particular note in this expansion, as they change an existing Special Rule or Innate Power of the four current low-complexity spirits in the base game. This ensures that the mechanic of Spirit Island keeps up with the new complexity of the expansion.

Spirit Island: Jagged Earth also expands the base game, and enables Spirit Island to be played by up to six players for the first time.

Spirit Island was hugely popular when it was released back in 2017, and this expansion Kickstarter has a ton of stretch goals all of which have already been unlocked, so fans of the game will want to get their pledge in. There's also a pledge option which includes the base game if you're a little late to the spiritual party. You can back the project here.
