Skulls of Sedlec: Poets

About this expansion

Skulls of Sedlec: Poets is a 6-card expansion for 1–4 players, with games lasting about 20 minutes. Released in 2021, it adds a new skull type and expands the ways Romantics can contribute to your score.

Poets want to be next to forlorn Romantics. They score points for each adjacent Romantic that is not scoring, creating a fresh decision for players building their arrangements. Rather than always trying to pair up the Romantics, you may now choose to keep some of them apart so your Poets can benefit.

• Adds the Poet skull type
• Scores for adjacent, non-scoring Romantics
• Enables play with a 4th player
• Works with the solo expansion, Skulls of Sedlec: Monstrance

Adding the expansion is simple: shuffle the six expansion cards into the base game, then play as usual. The new cards integrate directly into the game while introducing another way to think about positioning and scoring.

Poets gives Skulls of Sedlec a new angle on the relationships between skulls. Players who cannot—or choose not to—pair their Romantics can turn those non-scoring cards into an opportunity, provided they place Poets beside them.

With support for up to four players and compatibility with Skulls of Sedlec: Monstrance, this compact expansion adds variety without changing the straightforward setup. Include Poets when you want additional scoring possibilities and a new reason to consider where every Romantic ends up.
