Status: Garden Expansion

The Garden Expansion carries the pursuit of Status beyond the manor walls with a shared Garden Board and 25 Garden Cards shuffled into the Estate Deck. When revealed, Garden Cards enter a three-card river instead of the Estate Market. Players may place Social Tokens on the Garden Board to Tend displayed cards, marking them with Status Gems to receive immediate effects, ongoing benefits, or rewards when the card exits the Garden. The expansion also introduces The Gardener, an optional Player Board that can be used with or without the Garden Board. The Gardener plants Status Gems on Action Spaces and later harvests them to activate Room Bonuses. New Item, Personal Event, and Grand Event Cards join the base decks, while The Overgrowth provides a dedicated solo Scenario. Players still compete to advance furthest on the Status Track. Status: A Victorian Affair is required. —description from the publisher
