About this expansion

Jambo Expansion 2 is a modular expansion for Jambo for 2 players, with a playing time of about 30 minutes. Released in 2009, it adds three separate modules that can be combined in many ways with the base game and the first expansion.

The first module introduces new wares and encounters, expanding the available card selection with new persons, animals, utilities, and ware cards. The second module adds the fourth hut, while the third introduces the carpet. These additions can be used together or in different combinations, giving players several ways to build a playable deck.

  • 5 new persons, with 2 copies of each
  • 5 new animals, with 2 copies of each except for 1 Giraffe
  • 2 new utilities, with 2 copies of each
  • 3 carpets
  • 1 new hut, with 2 copies
  • 16 new ware cards, including 4 new kinds of ware cards, with 2 copies of each

In total, the expansion contains 60 new cards and one sheet of rules. About five counters are also needed. The cards can be combined with all cards from the base game and first expansion to create a playable deck.

Unlike the base game combined with the first expansion, this card pool does not require a number of non-ware cards to be removed to maintain a good balance of card types. For players looking to extend their Jambo collection, Jambo Expansion 2 offers three distinct modules and a substantial set of additional components.
