The Expansion Pack You Need!
My partner and I love the game Cascadia and itâs been our go to! So much so that we got burnout from playing it. But the good news is that this expansion pack has ignited our enjoyment of the game again as it offers new cards along with some new landmark challenges that put a unique spin on the game! The beautiful quality of the art and attention to detail is what we love about the base game, and the perfectly executed it again with this expansion pack! If youâre debating on whether to buy this, this is your sign to!

Probably my favorite game to play solo
Iâm mostly a solo board game player. Cascadia was easy to learn, easy to set up, and takes only about 15 minutes to play. Theres a nice blend of strategy, randomness, and light calculation. The pieces and cards are all beautifully illustrated. The instructions are clearly written. There are many YouTube videos describing set-up and demonstrating gameplay. Itâs easy to score. I donât have much time to play board games, so when I play this one I usually set up and play two or three games in a row.

Great expansion!
This is a very easy expansion to add to the base game. It all fits in the original box without removing insert, but easier if you do remove. I won’t play my game without the expansion, but you can play without it without having to remove any new terrain or animal pieces.The expansion is played by providing landmarks for each terrain type. You play the game the same as the base game, except that the first time you complete each terrain type of size 5 or larger you will put a landmark token on the most recently played tile and select a victory bonus card from the supplied options that will provide victory points for you alone at the end of the game. You can do this for each terrain type throughout the game until the game ends.Seriously, it is a fun addition to the game. However, I don’t think it is a make-or-break for this game. Meaning, if someone offered to play the game without the expansion then I wouldn’t be heart broken and still want to play. This expansion just provides more options and adds to the importance of terrain building.

Love it!
Bought it as a gift and played it! It is an awesome expansion to an already perfect game; it adds an interesting element without tarnishing the fun of the original!

Complexity
Great addition to game. Adds complexity and strategy to the game. But, the game was perfect before, so adding complexity was not required. Have enjoyed it, but unless you are willing to slow the game done and keep track of another level strategic planning it may not be for you.

Great Game
Super fun game for adults and kids. My husband and I enjoy it as well as our girl (ages 10-15). Great game!

Good expansion
It adds a lot to the game. My only complaint is packaging: neither this box nor the original box is nicely big enough for all the pieces together, especially as I have placed all the tiles in a bag for more ease of randomization. I got them all in there, but it’s an awkward fit. I might get a separate box for them.

Nice, though complicated, addition…
This is a weird addition to the original Cascadia game in a lot of ways, but once you get the hang of it I think you’ll like it. Cascadia’s base game is wonderfully varied, yet simple to play despite its options. This addition only adds the ability for two more players (in addition to the max of four with the original game). Six players is better than four, but it would be fun to play with seven or eight players.What this addition does add is a whole lot of complexity by making terrain groupings of five or more able to have a landmark piece placed on one of them instead of an animal token. Landmark tokens use up a playable terrain pieces, limiting your options for placing animal tokens (a serious cost), but also allowing you to choose a card which can add to your points at the end of the game–for instance, one card allows you to combine two terrain runs into a single larger one at scoring even if they’re not physically connected.The landmark tokens/pieces are intricately cut from wood and attractive. The expansion set includes new terrain pieces, some of which have three terrains on one piece. It also includes more–and more difficult–animal challenge cards.I have tried to keep my expansion pack pieces separate from the original board game. It’s hard, though, because there’s only a tiny icon on the expansion terrain pieces differentiating the two sets–and nothing at all differentiating the animal tokens. I assume the same proportion of tokens is provided in the expansion pack as in the original and that keeping all the pieces in one common bag doesn’t alter game dynamics, but at times it feels that all the new tokens make playing the original game less fun because it seems you get more runs of animals you don’t need. That’s probably only in our minds, but I think all of us feel it when playing the original game.So I like the expansion pack, but it does have a major impact on game play–making it significantly more complex. I think the game publisher would do well to sell another expansion pack that simply lets you play the original game with up to eight players. That would be a lot of fun and I think we’d love to buy it.
