About this expansion

Spirit Island: Bodenloser Schlamm der Sümpfe is a board game for 1–6 players with a playing time of 120 minutes. Released in 2023, it features a low-complexity spirit with a distinctive approach to Sacred Sites, Invaders, and Fear.

Fathomless Mud Of The Swamp likes having Sacred Sites where Invaders will Build. However, when its Innate Power sends the spirit oozing outwards, it may need to re-create those Sacred Sites afterward.

  • Make use of Sacred Sites in lands where Invaders will Build.
  • Use an Innate Power that can ooze outwards.
  • Cause a fair amount of Fear through unpleasantness, hardship, and disgust.

In smaller games, Fathomless Mud Of The Swamp may be able to cut off the most Inland lands from Explore actions. It does this by Destroying Inland Towns and Cities, while also stopping new ones from being built.

The Fear caused by this spirit represents more than simple intimidation. Much of it comes from unpleasantness, hardship, and disgust, giving its presence a distinctly uncomfortable character.

Spirit Island: Bodenloser Schlamm der Sümpfe is the same spirit included in Horizons of Spirit Island. In Germany, it was published on its own, making this low-complexity spirit available as a standalone release.
