   This is the big box expansion for BQ. It adds a few new things but without adding any extra complexity. Here is a little rundown of what is included: New Monsters: We used 3 new monsters (there are 9 in the box). The final big bad was the Mob Boss, who is a 6, 5 and makes you either discard 10 coins or discard 5 hearts worth of items from your shop each turn. Ouch. There is also the Unspeakable One (their nod to the Cthulhu mythos). This guy is a 9, 9 (!!!!) and if you manage to either hit him once or survive his attack, you get 3 extra VP and the game auto ends. That is cool. New item cards: The items are mostly potions. The potions give your hero a missing icon so you can equip them with more stuff. New Employee cards: There are 6 of these. The Henchmen lets you discard your Adventure card (usually a horrible card). The Loan Shark lets you add 10 coins to a hero but the hero is eliminated after the Adventure step. Thematic!! New Heroes: 8 new Heroes. These offer a wide variety of abilities. There is the Nobleman, who gets 40 Coins and can equip any items and go in any shop. But, he is a 0, 0. The Jester's Attack and Defense are equal to the # of cards equipped to him. That is neat. Black Market Deck: The main new thing is this deck. A new upgrade can be purchased that gives you access. After acquiring the upgrade, after you draw cards but before drafting, you draw a card from the Black Market deck. These cards are sometimes great (Treasure Map; if hero survives, you and Hero get 10 coins or TERRIBLE Gold Sword; -2 attack). These are drafted normally). You can upgrade your Black Market to draw 2 cards each round. This is really good. I don't feel that it adds too much more complexity to the base game. It does add more time though as you have to really carefully decide what to keep and discard each round. Recommended.
