A very good first expansion for an excellent game. Doesn't add any new mechanics but enhances many of the strategies introduced in the base game, notably enhancing the power of the Guardian symbol and adding additional options for your mana token. An excellent addition to the game. Highly recommended!

The first expansion for this "card crafting" game. This is one of those expansions that I would say you really need to have as it makes the base game feel complete. I think companies break up the base game so they can sell more. Ohh well. So this just adds more cards and more vales. The new cards really don't add any extra complexity. Some of my favorites were the guy who lets you flip extra cards after you stop based on the number of Guardian symbols on the card, ignoring Spoiling. Also, there is a card that lets you flip your player token to the active side when it is played (giving +1 money). Many Vale cards also give this ability when bought. I think my favorite card was the Hatchery. This lets you add it as the first card of your field on your next turn as long as it wasn't the first card this turn. So, load it up. I had mine with 3 coins. So yes, if you are a fan of Mystic Vale, this is an absolute must buy.

It is fine, I guess. Several cards for more options during card drafting.Does not revolutionise the game, does not introduce anything groundbreaking, which is actually what I was looking for in this expansion. Oh well, maybe a future one might be better.
